Compliance
Money Laundering Regulations & Requirements
Flexible workspace providers must register with HMRC for supervision under anti money laundering regulations as a Trust or Company service provider where providing:
Registered office | Business address | Accommodation | Correspondence address or mail forwarding services to business (other than sole proprietors)
HMRC will apply a charge as well as penalties for breaches and failures such as:
Customer due diligence | Risk assessment | Policies | Controls and procedures | Record keeping
We apply practical real-world logic making sure your policy both meets the Regulatory Guidance and fits with your operational culture and the type of clients you have.
Our documents are in plain English structured to fit with the way you and your team work. This ensures Compliance is achievable and takes into consideration that in the Flexible and Serviced Office Industry, every day is different, and some important tasks can get pushed and even forgotten. We ensure you meet your obligations within your Policy, without setting unrealistic targets.
