Name of Horizontal Initiative: Canada's Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorist Financing Regime, formerly the National Initiative to Combat Money Laundering

Name of lead department(s): Department of Finance Canada

Lead department program activity: Economic and Fiscal Policy Framework

Start date of the Horizontal Initiative: June 2000

End date of the Horizontal Initiative: Ongoing

Total federal funding allocation
(start to end date): $622,961 ($ thousands)

Description of the Horizontal Initiative (including funding agreement): The National Initiative to Combat Money Laundering (NICML) was formally established in 2000 as part of the government's ongoing effort to combat money laundering in Canada. Legislation adopted that year, the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) Act, created a mandatory reporting system for suspicious financial transactions, large cross-border currency transfers, and certain prescribed transactions. The legislation also established the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) to collect and analyze these financial transaction reports and to disclose pertinent information to law enforcement and intelligence agencies. In December 2001, the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) Act was amended to include measures to fight terrorist financing activities, and renamed the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act.

The NICML was expanded and is now known as Canada's Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorist Financing Regime. In December 2006, Bill C-25 amended the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act to ensure that Canada's legislation remains consistent with international anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing standards as set out by the Financial Action Task Force, and is responsive to areas of domestic risk. The amendments include enhanced client identification requirements, the creation of a registration regime for money services businesses, and the establishment of an administrative and monetary penalties regime to deal with lesser infractions of the Act.

Shared outcome(s): To detect and deter money laundering and the financing of terrorist activities and to facilitate the investigation and prosecution of money laundering and terrorist financing offences.

Governance structure(s): Canada's Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorist Financing Regime is a horizontal initiative composed of both funded and non-funded partners. The funded partners are the Department of Finance Canada, the Department of Justice Canada, the Public Prosecution Service of Canada, FINTRAC, the Canada Border Services Agency, the Canada Revenue Agency, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police; the non-funded partners are Public Safety Canada, the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions Canada, and Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada. An interdepartmental Assistant Deputy Minister-level group and working group, consisting of all partners and led by the Department of Finance Canada, has been established to direct and coordinate the government's efforts to combat money laundering and terrorist financing activities. In addition, the Department also chairs a Public/Private Sector Advisory Committee. This broad-based advisory committee is composed of both public and private sector representatives who provide general guidance for Canada's Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorist Financing Regime.

Planning Highlights: The priorities for Canada's Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorist Financing Regime partners will continue to focus on the following key objectives: detecting, deterring and preventing money laundering and terrorist financing and facilitating the investigation and prosecution of money laundering and terrorist financing offences. Each partner plays a key role in the Regime, and a coordinated effort is a priority.

The Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) produces and disseminates financial intelligence on suspected money laundering, terrorist financing and other threats to the security of Canada; making case disclosures to appropriate law enforcement agencies, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service or other agencies designated by legislation to support investigations and prosecutions. FINTRAC also conducts strategic analysis of financial intelligence from a variety of information sources, which informs various stakeholders about trends and patterns relating to money laundering and terrorist financing.

In 2011–12, FINTRAC will continue to provide law enforcement, intelligence bodies and international partners with timely financial intelligence and case disclosures to support investigations and other actions. FINTRAC will also seek to ensure that its partners, policy makers and other interested parties have the knowledge and support they need to make informed decisions on existing and emerging issues related to money laundering and terrorist financing.

Compliance

FINTRAC seeks to counter money laundering and terrorist financing by improving the compliance of its Reporting Entities with their obligations under Part 1 of the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act and related regulations, including obligations concerning reporting, record keeping, identity verification and other requirements.

For 2011–12, FINTRAC will continue to use a risk-based approach to compliance that seeks to ensure that reporting entities understand and are engaged in meeting their legislative obligations regarding anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing.

Expected results by program:

Special Enforcement Program

The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) is focusing on the following three key areas: participating in committees and initiatives that aim to manage and strengthen Canada’s Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorist Financing Regime; continuing to enhance operational relationships with the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) and other Regime partners; and conducting research and analysis as it relates to money laundering and tax avoidance and evasion, which would include conducting compliance action focused on individuals and entities that are participating in money laundering and terrorist financing activities.

In 2011–12, the Special Enforcement Program (SEP) will continue to treat all disclosures from FINTRAC on a priority basis. That is, SEP will thoroughly review all disclosures received from FINTRAC and select for audit those with identifiable tax potential. The projected number of audits will remain at approximately 90 cases, with a projected federal tax recovery of $9,000,000. However, given the complexity of the files received from FINTRAC, the lengthy amount of time required to complete these cases and the fact that the number of referrals continue to increase, the number of audits SEP can complete in 2011–12 may be impacted. These factors will also potentially impact the federal tax recovery for these cases.

The results of these audits will be gathered for intelligence purposes to determine whether trends or additional participants in these activities can be identified. 

Charities Directorate 

Under the Income Tax Act, CRA is responsible for administering the registration system for charities. This responsibility recognizes that the existence of a strong regulatory deterrence against terrorist abuse of charities contributes to suppressing the financing of terrorism in Canada and to protecting and preserving the social cohesion and the well-being of Canadians. The CRA's regulatory oversight of charities has been strengthened by the enactment of complementary measures under the Charities Registration (Security Information) Act and the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act and by changes to the Income Tax Act that authorize broader information sharing between partners of Canada’s Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorist Financing Regime. Under these authorities, intelligence provided to CRA assists in its mandate to protect the integrity of the registration system for charities, and information disclosed by CRA can be used for investigative purposes. In 2011–12, CRA will continue to consolidate its capacity to identify and respond to cases involving possible links to terrorism by deploying new decision support systems, refining risk management tools, developing a privacy management framework and bringing regulatory actions to the attention of Canadians.

Seized non-reported currency and monetary instruments are forfeited with no terms of release when BSOs suspect that the seized currency or monetary instruments are proceeds of crime or funds for use in terrorist financing activities. In all other instances, the seized amount will be returned upon payment of a penalty. BSOs are trained to recognize various monetary instruments and potential instances of non-compliance.
• Dedicated Cross-Border Currency Reporting Teams will continue to be an integral part of the Canada Border Services Agency’s (CSBA) outbound enforcement effort.
• The Currency Detector Dogs Service will continue to play an important role in the detection of unreported currency that may be related to money laundering or terrorist financing.

Recourse

• Allow for the legislative or administrative mechanism that provides Canadians with a timely, objective, consistent and transparent internal review process intended to determine the correctness of CBSA decisions and actions taken under the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act.

Internal Services

• Provide functional direction to the regions regarding the administration and enforcement of Part 2 of the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act.
• Provide critical strategic planning, priority setting and coordination for the Cross-Border Currency Reporting Program;
• Continue to work closely with other key government departments on matters related to money laundering and terrorist financing.
