GOWEONIT AML POLICY

(Last Updated June 6, 2020)

AML Overview

Anti-Money Laundering (AML) is a critical regulatory process, often lumped in with the KYC process. AML assures that the individual you are transacting with is permitted to do so. Along the same line, AML checks verify that an individual is not on any known bad actor list. These lists are constantly updated and monitored by Goweonit.

Goweonit Anti Money Laundering Policy

Goweonit AML Policy prohibit and actively prevent money laundering and any activity that facilitates money laundering or the funding of terrorist or criminal activities by complying with all applicable requirements under the National Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism and Proliferation (AML/CFT&P) policy – (2019-2022).

Money laundering is generally defined as engaging in acts designed to conceal or disguise the true origins of criminally derived proceeds so that the proceeds appear to have derived from legitimate origins or constitute legitimate assets. Generally, money laundering occurs in three stages. Cash first enters the financial system at the "placement" stage, where the cash generated from criminal activities is converted into monetary instruments, such as money orders or traveler's checks, or deposited into accounts at financial institutions. At the "layering" stage, the funds are transferred or moved into other accounts or other financial institutions to further separate the money from its criminal origin. At the "integration" stage, the funds are reintroduced into the economy and used to purchase legitimate assets or to fund other criminal activities or legitimate businesses. 

Our AML policies, procedures and internal controls are designed to ensure compliance with all applicable BSA regulations and AML/CFT&P rules and will be reviewed and updated on a regular basis to ensure appropriate policies, procedures and internal controls are in place to account for both changes in regulations and changes in our business. Pursuant to the AML and its implementing regulations, financial institutions are required to make certain searches of their records upon receiving an information request from Office for National Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism and Proliferation (AML/CFT&P) policy – (2019-2022). Describe Goweonit’s procedures for Office for National Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism and Proliferation (AML/CFT&P) policy – (2019-2022) requests for information on money laundering or terrorist activity.

In order for a firm to obtain information requests from Office National Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism and Proliferation (AML/CFT&P) policy – (2019-2022), the firm must first designate an AML Contact Person in GOWEONIT. You should be aware that if you want to change the person who receives Office National Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism and Proliferation (AML/CFT&P) policy – (2019-2022) requests, you must change the AML contact information in GOWEONIT.

Customers Who Refuse To Provide Information for AML/CFT&P Request

Goweoniit: If a potential or existing customer either refuses to provide the information described above when requested, or appears to have intentionally provided misleading information, Letmesent will not open a new account and, after considering the risks involved, consider closing any existing account. In either case, our AML Compliance Officer will be notified so that we can determine whether we should report the situation to AML/CFT&P

Know Your Customer (KYC)

Know Your Customer (KYC) is a phrase very well known by anyone in a regulated market. This important process allows you to verify that the individual you are dealing with is who they claim. By combining indirect and user provided information, Goweonit is able to assess the largest risk factors in online transactions. User documents are scanned using text and document recognition technology. This instant process allows you to quickly assess who you are dealing with and get down to business.

Verifying Customers Information

Goweonit will analyze the information we obtain to determine whether the information is sufficient to form a reasonable belief that we know the true identity of the customer (e.g., whether the information is logical or contains inconsistencies).  

We will verify customer identity through documentary means, non-documentary means or both. [Tailor the sentence to your actual situation.] We will use documents to verify customer identity when appropriate documents are available. In light of the increased instances of identity fraud, we will supplement the use of documentary evidence by using the non-documentary means described below whenever necessary. We may also use non-documentary means, if we are still uncertain about whether we know the true identity of the customer. In verifying the information, we will consider whether the identifying information that we receive, such as the

•    customer’s name,
•    street address,
•    zip code,
•    telephone number (if provided),
•    date of birth
•    and bank information,

All these information will allow us to determine that we have a reasonable belief that we know the true identity of the customer (e.g., whether the information is logical or contains inconsistencies).

Lack Of Verification

Goweonit: When we cannot form a reasonable belief that we know the true identity of a customer, we will do the following:
(1)    Not open an account;
(2)    impose terms under which a customer may conduct transactions while we attempt to verify the customer’s identity;
(3)    Close an account after attempts to verify a customer’s identity fail; and
(4)    Determine whether it is necessary to file a complaints in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

Conducting Ongoing Monitoring to Identify and Report Suspicious Transactions

We will conduct ongoing monitoring to identify and report suspicious transactions and, on a risk basis, maintain and update customer information, including information regarding the beneficial ownership of legal entity customers, using the customer risk profile as a baseline against which customer activity is assessed for suspicious transaction reporting.
