With an aim to provide NGOs with the latest legal and regulatory requirements related to anti-money laundering/counter-financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) as well as tools to address the risks of money laundering/terrorist financing (ML/TF), the Council has collaborated with Mayer Brown and BNP Paribas to develop the Anti-money Laundering/Counter-financing of Terrorism Due Diligence Toolkit for Hong Kong NGOs. 

The Toolkit includes information on implementing an AML/CFT risk management framework that is commensurate to the scale and scope of the NGO’s operation, guidelines on due diligence according to different types of donations, a non-exhaustive checklist for identifying and detecting ML/TF risks, a due diligence checklist on donors, partners and beneficiaries, and a segregation of duties checklist.
