Assumptions & Limits For This Package

Who this pack is designed for

  • Regulated businesses that already have internal responsibility for AML/CTF
  • Need short bursts of additional specialist capacity (for example, projects, peak periods or staff leave)
  • Have relatively contained, well‑defined AML tasks that can fit inside 8 hours

Nature of this engagement

  • Intended for short‑term, clearly scoped tasks rather than ongoing outsourcing of the AML function
  • Time is allocated to specific tasks agreed at the outset and then scheduled by mutual agreement
  • Detailed booking, time‑tracking and expiry rules (if any) are confirmed in your Services Agreement and/or engagement correspondence

When this pack should be custom‑quoted (not bought online)

  • Large, complex remediation or historical clean‑up projects
  • Multi‑entity or group‑wide AML/CTF framework work
  • High‑risk, complex or contentious matters where AUSTRAC or other regulators are already actively involved
  • Situations where you need ongoing, recurring AML resourcing rather than short‑term support

Examples of work always treated as separate engagements

  • Independent AML/CTF Reviews or statutory Independent Evaluations
  • Full AML/CTF Program design or major overhauls of existing Programs
  • Large‑scale remediation projects and historical back‑book reviews
  • Formal legal opinions on complex AML/CTF or financial services questions
  • Acting for you in AUSTRAC enforcement, audits or contentious proceedings
  • Long‑term outsourced AML/CTF Officer arrangements or embedded secondments
