AML/ATF Compliance


Built Right - Audit Ready


- Most mortgage brokers are FINTRAC reporting entities operating with outdated or incomplete AML programs.

- Penalties reach $2M per violation. We fix the gaps — before an examiner finds them.

What FINTRAC will ask for - and what most brokers don't have

Outdated or generic policies

A template from your broker association, unchanged since 2019, will not satisfy an examiner in 2025. Policies must reflect your actual business.

No written risk assessment

The first thing FINTRAC asks for. Most brokers have never completed one. Without it, your examination will not go well.

No STR process in place

Many brokers don't know when they're obligated to file a Suspicious Transaction Report — or how. This is one of the most cited deficiencies.

As a mortgage broker, you are a designated reporting entity under the PCMLTFA. FINTRAC requires a complete, documented AML/ATF compliance program — not a template you downloaded five years ago.

No documented training records

Annual AML training is required for all applicable staff. FINTRAC wants documented completion records — not your recollection of a hallway conversation.
