Tranche 2 operations

Risk assessed per designated service Queried

Vendor states the risk assessment wizard captures the business's designated services alongside customer types, geography, channels and transaction characteristics, and that tenants are configured to their designated services; customer risk uses a 42-factor engine, and per-service risk ratings are not described.

Ongoing monitoring triggered by designated service and risk Queried

Vendor states re-screening runs at risk-based intervals and change detection triggers alerts and risk re-scoring, with periodic KYC review prompts; re-review is not described as triggered by a new designated service.

Program obligations calendar Queried

Vendor states a compliance calendar with auto-seeded regulatory dates, training expiry tracking and scheduled reliance reassessments; it does not publicly list which program obligations (risk assessment review, effectiveness checks, governing-body reports, independent evaluation) are tracked.

Versioned AML program and CDD records Agreed

Vendor states program documents carry version control and record the state of their upstream inputs; its security page (https://amlguard.com.au/security.html) says evidence snapshots are immutable and vault storage is versioned.

Escalation to AMLCO or manager with outcome recorded Queried

Vendor states SMR preparation has an officer approval step and case reviews go through draft, submitted for review and approved stages between the officer and the signing manager; it does not describe staff-raised escalations with the outcome notified back.

Expired document alerts Not obtained
Reliance CDD requests sent and received Agreed

Vendor states it has a statutory s37A/s38 reliance register plus an evidence-sharing workflow between reporting entities, described elsewhere as a 'cross-tenant sharing hub'.
