Ever wondered how much money is laundered through New Zealand businesses every year?
New Zealand is a target for money launderers, and since 2013 we’ve had anti-money laundering laws in place that applied to banks, financial institutions and some trust and company service providers. These laws have since extended to lawyers, conveyancers, accountants and real estate agents, and as of 1st August 2019 have extended to cover dealers of high value goods and the New Zealand racing board.
