AML / CTF / AUSTRAC

AUSTRAC Tranche 2 changes what it means to be a reporting entity.

Software for AUSTRAC-regulated businesses, AML/CTF reporting entities, and financial services firms.

The Operational Reality

From 1 July 2026, accountants, lawyers, and real estate agents are reporting entities under the AML/CTF Act 2006. Most existing practice management tools were not built for this obligation.

AUSTRAC reporting entities must maintain an AML/CTF program, conduct ongoing customer due diligence, and report suspicious matters — with statutory deadlines and tamper-evident records.

KYC/CDD requirements apply at enrolment, at risk-trigger events, and on an ongoing monitoring basis — generating a compliance record that must be stored securely for 7 years.

Suspicious Matter Reports carry strict confidentiality obligations — the reporting entity cannot disclose that a report has been lodged.

Non-compliance penalties include significant civil penalties and criminal prosecution for individuals — not just organisations.
