Many thanks espechially for the MLR forms and advice.
If it's not a bit cheeky, a couple of additional forms for this section that might prove helpful would be a Money Laundering Internal Report form and an MLRO report log.
kind regards,
Shaun.

Thank's for the feedback and suggestions - much appreciated.
With regards to a money laundering internal report, I'm pleased to advise that we've just uploaded an example 'Suspicious Activity Report' (SAR) into the members-only area of the BKN site.
The SAR form can be used by book-keepers and accountants (or their employees) to report a suspicion of money laundering to the firms designated Money Laundering Officer (MLRO).
Hopefully this form will be of use to BKN members.
