US Authorities Propose Measures to Strengthen Anti-Money Laundering Efforts for Investment Firms

in Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Compliance

In an effort to address concerns regarding the potential misuse of investment advisers to facilitate illicit financial activities, US authorities unveiled a joint proposal on Monday. The proposal targets hedge funds, private equity firms, venture capital firms, and other money managers.

Outlined in the plan is a requirement for firms to gather detailed information about their investors, encompassing names, dates of birth or entity formation, addresses, and additional pertinent details. Regulatory bodies are now soliciting public feedback on the proposed rule, a process expected to span at least 60 days. Implementation of the measure is anticipated to take several months following the conclusion of this feedback period.

The Treasury Department has underscored the vulnerability of investment advisers as potential channels for illicit funds associated with tax evasion, terrorist financing, and corruption. Additionally, concerns have been raised regarding the possibility of these firms being leveraged to facilitate transactions involving Russian oligarchs or to support Chinese endeavors with national security implications.

While acknowledging that some money managers currently collect customer identification information, the Treasury Department’s report released earlier this year highlighted widespread challenges in verifying the sources of clients’ funds. Notably, the existing regulatory framework governing the $20 trillion private funds industry imposes limited obligations pertaining to anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing.

The proposed rules would be incorporated within banking regulations and build upon a related measure introduced by the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network in February. This earlier measure aimed to classify both registered and exempt investment advisers as financial institutions.

Despite the regulatory efforts, the Managed Funds Association, a trade group representing private equity and hedge funds, has voiced opposition. In an April comment letter, the association criticized the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network’s rule, arguing that it rests on a “flawed premise” regarding the role of investment managers in handling fund investor assets.
