AML/CTF ACT ban on entering into a relationship without client due diligence Pursuant to Article 5 AML/CTF Act, an institution is prohibited from entering into a business relationship or executing a transaction on behalf of a client unless client due diligence as referred to in Article 3 AML/CTF Act has been carried out and the desired outcome has been achieved. Where an institution cannot meet the requirement of client due diligence in respect of an existing business relationship, it should terminate that relationship.8 This is the case, for example, when the identity of the client is unknown. Institutions may not (or may no longer) provide services to that client.9 In situations where there are considerable risks, no business relationship may be entered into, the transaction may not be executed, or the existing relationship must be terminated (at the next reasonable opportunity). Significant risks exist where it is impossible for an institution to identify the client or the beneficial owner or where the client is a legal entity that is part of a structure of international companies that is difficult to understand. Failure of the client due diligence can occur both during the client acceptance phase and during the business relationship. 8 Until 1 January 2013, the obligation to terminate the business relationship was included in Article 5(1) AML/CTF Act. The obligation has been included in (2) as of that date.
