REGULATORY IMPACT ANALYSIS STATEMENT

(This statement is not part of the Regulations.)

Executive summary

Issues: In 2015 – 16, the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) evaluated Canada's Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorist Financing (AML/ATF) Regime for compliance with its standards, and identified a number of deficiencies that Canada needs to address. In addition, in 2014 and 2017, the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (the Act) was amended through the Economic Action Plan 2014 Act, No. 1 and the Budget Implementation Act, 2017, No. 1 to strengthen the AML/ATF Regime. Regulatory changesfootnote1 are needed to operationalize some of the legislative changes, strengthen Canada's AML/ATF Regime, and ensure its measures are aligned with the FATF standards.

Description: The proposed amendments to the regulations would strengthen Canada's AML/ATF Regime by updating customer due diligence requirements and beneficial ownership reporting requirements; regulating businesses dealing in virtual currency; updating the schedules to the regulations; including foreign money service businesses (MSB) in Canada's AML/ATF Regime; clarifying a number of existing requirements; and making minor technical amendments.

Cost-benefit statement: The proposed amendments would result in an estimated $1,867,698 (present value [PV]) in benefits and $61,132,622 (PV) in costs, for a net cost of $59,264,925 (PV) over a 10-year period in 2012 dollars. There are substantial qualitative benefits associated with the amendments that cannot be monetized. The proposed amendments would strengthen Canada's AML/ATF Regime and improve compliance with the FATF international standards. Meeting these standards improves the integrity of the global AML/ATF framework. Furthermore, the amendments positively impact Canada's international reputation, and would lead to regulatory efficiencies with other countries' anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing regimes, making it easier for Canadian businesses to operate internationally.

"One-for-One" Rule and small business lens: The proposed amendments would result in a total annualized administrative cost increase on businesses, estimated at $463,098. The annualized administrative cost increase per affected business is estimated at approximately $20. However, the proposal is exempt from the requirement to offset under the "One-for-One" Rule, as it implements non-discretionary obligations. The proposed amendments would have nationwide impacts of $1 million or more, and impact small businesses; therefore, the small business lens applies.

Domestic and international coordination and cooperation: The proposed amendments would enhance the quality and scope of Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC)'s disclosures of financial intelligence to law enforcement and other disclosure recipients, which would better assist them in their investigations.

Canada's AML/ATF Regime is largely consistent with international standards set by the FATF. Although the standards set by the FATF are not legally binding, as a member, Canada is obligated to implement them and to submit to a peer evaluation of their effective implementation. Canada's last mutual evaluation took place in 2015 – 16. The FATF's report outlined a number of deficiencies, which the proposed amendments help to address.

Background

Canada's AML/ATF Regime

The core elements of Canada's AML/ATF Regime are set out in the Act. The Act applies to designated financial and non-financial entities (known as "reporting entities"footnote2) that provide access to the financial system and may therefore be susceptible to abuse by criminals seeking to integrate the proceeds of their crimes into the legitimate economy.

The Act sets out obligations that broadly fall into the following four categories: record keeping; verification of the identity of designated persons and entities (e.g. clients with whom the reporting entities conduct business); reporting of suspicious and other prescribed financial transactions (e.g. large cash transactions); and the establishment and implementation of an internal compliance program. The Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Regulations (the Regulations) set out how reporting entities are to fulfill these obligations.

FATF

Canada is a founding member of the FATF, an intergovernmental body that sets standards and promotes effective implementation of legal, regulatory and operational measures for combating money laundering, terrorist activity financing and other related threats to the integrity of the international financial system. Although the standards set by the FATF are not legally binding, as a member, Canada is obligated to implement them and to submit to a peer evaluation of their effective implementation.

Not meeting this commitment could lead to a number of sanctions, from enhanced scrutiny measures to public listing and, in the extreme, suspension of membership from the FATF. Furthermore, non-compliance could cause serious reputational harm to Canada's financial sector and subject Canadian financial institutions to increased regulatory burden when dealing with foreign counterparts or when doing business overseas.

In 2012, FATF took steps to enhance its standards. Canada's last mutual evaluation took place in 2015 – 16. Although Canada's AML/ATF Regime is largely consistent with FATF's standards, the evaluation report outlined a number of deficiencies that Canada needs to address. One of the deficiencies raised by FATF evaluators was compliance with "customer due diligence" requirements (e.g. no requirement to check the source of wealth, or to identify the beneficiary of a life insurance payout).

Customer due diligence measures require that a reporting entity verify the identity of their client, understand the nature of the business relationship, and conduct ongoing monitoring. Strong due diligence measures allow for more effective ongoing monitoring of clients, and help reporting entities to be satisfied that the transactions and/or activities are in line with what they know about their clients. Reporting entities who know their clients and their activities are better able to assess the money laundering and terrorist activity financing risk level of those clients, and to identify and report any suspicious transactions conducted by those clients.

Other deficiencies identified by the FATF include not having a requirement to assess new technologies before their launch, no coverage of open loop prepaid cards, of foreign MSBs, or of businesses dealing in virtual currency.

The outcome of this evaluation was that Canada became subject to what is referred to as the "enhanced follow-up process." This FATF process exists for countries with significant deficiencies in their AML/ATF regimes. Currently, Canada is required to report annually on its progress toward addressing the deficiencies identified in the 2015 – 16 mutual evaluation. A number of these deficiencies stem from Canada's AML/ATF Regime not reflecting the ongoing modernization of the financial sector.

Modernization of the financial sector

Financial technology, or "FinTech," refers to companies using technology to make financial services more effective and efficient. The various business models used to support or deliver new payment method services (e.g. prepaid cards, Internet and mobile payment services) have the advantage of helping people withdraw and convert funds more quickly than through traditional channels, including conducting international transactions in real time. While providing benefits to consumers, the new business models can complicate monitoring as well as make it difficult for authorities to follow the money trail. Also, transactions conducted through the Internet allow a certain degree of anonymity that can potentially be exploited by money launderers or terrorist activity financiers.

The Act and the associated regulations were originally intended for traditionally offered financial services, and "bricks and mortar" institutions. With the financial industry increasingly moving to the digital world, it is necessary to update the legal framework to ensure no loopholes emerge (e.g. prepaid cards, virtual currency, foreign MSBs) that could be exploited by criminals without stifling innovation in the financial sector.

Prepaid cards

Open-loop prepaid cards (i.e. cards that run on a payment card network and are not restricted for use only at a particular merchant or a group of merchants, such as a shopping centre gift card) provide access to funds that are paid in advance by the cardholder or a third party. These cards are not necessarily connected to a bank account, and the verification of cardholder identity varies from one financial institution to another. The wide variety of funding options also means that the origins of funds are difficult to trace and it is difficult to ascertain whether or not the money is from a legitimate source (e.g. some cards can be anonymously loaded with cash at a third party reseller location, such as a Canada Post office).

Virtual currency

The evolving financial services landscape is further influenced by virtual currencies, especially decentralized digital payment systems, like Bitcoin, that operate outside the traditional financial system. A virtual currency is a medium of exchange that allows for value to be held and exchanged in an electronic, non-physical manner, is not a fiat currency (i.e. the official currency of a country), has the intended purpose of being exchanged for real and virtual goods and services, and allows peer-to-peer transfers.

Virtual currencies can be "centralized," in that they are issued and controlled by a single company or entity, or "decentralized," in that there is no central authority that creates or manages it (e.g. Bitcoin). Rather, these tasks are managed collectively by the network of some virtual currency users.

In addition, virtual currencies can be "convertible" or "non-convertible," depending on whether they can be exchanged for funds. Convertible virtual currencies are vulnerable to abuse for money laundering and terrorist activity financing purposes because they allow greater levels of anonymity, or in some cases complete anonymity, when compared to traditional non-cash payment methods. Virtual currencies can be accessed globally via online or mobile systems. They allow for the rapid transfer of funds within or across borders, oftentimes without any intermediary, are generally characterized by non-face-to-face customer relationships, and can circumvent the physical "brick and mortar" financial system entirely. Due to these characteristics, virtual currencies are increasingly being used to facilitate fraud and cybercrime, and to purchase illicit goods and services on the dark Web.

Foreign MSBs

The Internet and new payment methods provide an opportunity for foreign entities without a place of business in Canada to offer MSB services in Canada. These businesses are at risk of being exploited by money launderers and/or terrorist financiers, but the current AML/ATF framework was not envisioned to capture transactions conducted using non-traditional, Internet-based methods. This represents a gap in Canada's legal framework and an uneven playing field for Canadian domestic competitors, who are required to abide by the Act.

Issues

First established in 2000 – 01, Canada's AML/ATF Regime must regularly adapt and evolve to changes in its operating environment (e.g. to account for technological advancements like virtual currency or in response to ongoing modernization of the financial sector).

The Act was amended through the Economic Action Plan 2014 Act, No. 1 and the Budget Implementation Act, 2017, No. 1, to strengthen the AML/ATF Regime and align it with international standards. In 2015 – 16, the FATF evaluated Canada's AML/ATF Regime, and identified a number of deficiencies.

Regulatory changes are needed to operationalize some of the legislative changes, close loopholes in Canada's AML/ATF Regime, and address a number of the deficiencies outlined by the FATF.

Objectives

The proposed amendments would

Description

The proposed amendments make the following changes.

The proposed regulatory amendments would update the requirements for reporting entities to perform customer due diligence and help bring them in line with FATF recommendations.

The proposed amendments would help address and close the gaps that exist in Canada's AML/ATF Regime, including regulating new business models and technologies, and address new emerging risks.

The proposed amendments would improve compliance, monitoring and enforcement efforts.

Finally, the following technical amendments would also be adopted:

Regulatory and non-regulatory options considered

Maintain status quo

Maintaining the status quo was determined not to be viable, given that without these regulatory changes, deficiencies in Canada's AML/ATF Regime would remain in place. This would compromise the integrity of Canada's financial system and the security and safety of Canadians at home and abroad. Furthermore, not addressing deficiencies in compliance with FATF standards would have significant adverse consequences for Canada.

Non-regulatory options

Canada's AML/ATF Regime is set in legislation and regulations. To close loopholes and address the deficiencies identified by the FATF, there is no other option available but to amend the regulations.

B. Qualitative impacts

Negative impacts

An analysis is currently underway to determine the extent of additional funding required to adapt FINTRAC's IT systems.

Positive impacts

A strong and effective AML/ATF Regime acts as a deterrent to crime and therefore improves the safety of Canadians and the integrity of Canada's financial system. In turn, this increases confidence in Canada's financial system, making it an attractive place to invest and do business. Investors seek investment opportunities in locations that have a relatively low crime environment and that are politically and economically stable, among other factors. The willingness of businesses and individuals to invest in Canada could be negatively affected if Canada were viewed as weak on combating terrorist financing or if Canada were to have a reputation for being a safe haven for raising terrorist funds.

A strong reputation with regards to an effective AML/ATF Regime helps Canadian financial institutions avoid burdensome regulatory hurdles and additional costs when dealing with their foreign counterparts or doing business overseas.

Costs

As a result of the proposed amendments, reporting entities are expected to carry an estimated $54 million (PV) in compliance costs and $7.1 million (PV) in administrative costs for an estimated $61.1 million (PV) in total costs over a 10-year period (or $8.7 million annually). There are approximately 30 000 reporting entities, all of which are businesses.

These costs stem from internal IM/IT systems changes that would be required to support the implementation of the proposed amendments (e.g. to account for the changes to the 24-hour rule); the associated updates that would be required to reporting entities' internal policies and procedures (e.g. to improve the accuracy of beneficial ownership information); and the provision of additional documents to FINTRAC if asked in a compliance examination (e.g. to fulfill the changes being made to the schedules to the Regulations).

Resource implications for the Government of Canada

It is anticipated that additional costs will be incurred by FINTRAC to operationalize and enforce the proposed amendments in order to adapt FINTRAC's IT systems. Costing data is not available at this time; however, an analysis is currently underway to determine whether there will be incremental resource implications.

Benefits

Finance Canada has estimated that the proposed amendments would introduce $1.9 million (PV) in total administrative cost savings over 10 years to business. The majority of other benefits, however, cannot be quantified. These include reputational, economic and national security benefits.

The proposed amendments would strengthen Canada's AML/ATF Regime and enhance its effectiveness by improving customer due diligence standards; closing loopholes; improving compliance, monitoring and enforcement; and strengthening information sharing. The amendments would also enhance the quality and scope of FINTRAC disclosures of financial intelligence to law enforcement and disclosure recipients, which should better assist them in their investigations. Strong AML/ATF policies help to deter and detect money laundering and terrorist activity financing offences.

The proposed amendments would also improve compliance with the FATF international standards and help Canada meet the necessary requirements to exit the enhanced follow-up process. Meeting these standards improves the integrity of the global AML/ATF framework, positively impacts Canada's international reputation, and can lead to regulatory efficiencies with other countries' AML/ATF regimes, making it easier for Canadian businesses to operate internationally. The methodology and assumptions used to calculate the costing estimates are available upon request.

"One-for-One" Rule

Canada's obligations to meet the FATF's international standards are non-discretionary in nature (due to the potential for punitive consequences in the event Canada fails to meet them). Other jurisdictions' perception of Canada has tangible impacts on Canadian businesses. If Canada is not aligned with the FATF standards or is perceived by its international peers as making insufficient progress on its AML/ATF Regime generally, there could be negative reputational consequences for Canada's financial sector, as well as increased costs for Canadian financial institutions.

By its nature, including the need to be aligned with FATF standards and effectively detecting and deterring crimes, Canada's legislative and regulatory framework for combating money laundering and terrorist activity financing imposes an unavoidable burden on reporting entities.

The total net annualized administrative cost increase for regulated businesses is estimated at $463,098. The annualized administrative cost increase per affected business is estimated to be $20. Because Canada is required to make the proposed amendments in order to comply with FATF standards, they are considered non-discretionary in nature and are therefore exempt from the requirement to offset under the "One-for-One" Rule. This means that an equal amount of administrative burden would not have to be offset two years after these amendments are made.

These costs were estimated by using the Treasury Board Secretariat's Regulatory Cost Calculator and the relevant monetization parameters for "One-for-One" Rule reporting.

Small business lens

The proposed amendments would have nationwide impacts of $1 million or more and would impact small businesses; therefore, the small business lens applies. It is assumed that roughly 24 000 small businesses are impacted by this proposal. The total incremental administrative and compliance costs imposed on small businesses are estimated at $54,071,262 ([PV], $7,698,532 annualized average), which is equivalent to $325 per small business impacted.

These costs stem from internal IM/IT systems changes required to support the implementation of the proposed amendments; the associated updates to reporting entities' internal policies and procedures; and the additional reporting of information and provision of documents to FINTRAC.

Finance Canada is not able to provide a flexibility analysis for small businesses because the amendments are being made to comply with FATF standards, which, while not legally binding, Canada is obligated to follow. Finance Canada recognizes that businesses, irrespective of size, will require time to implement these changes and will therefore provide 12 months of transition to comply with the new requirements. While this does not constitute a special consideration for small businesses alone, it should be noted that impacts on business, of which small businesses constitute approximately 90%, have been considered in establishing compliance requirements.

Furthermore, a number of amendments are being introduced to reduce regulatory burden on all businesses. Only a fraction of the burden relief has been quantified, as most of the burden being offset stems from requirements that are in the Act and not directly in the regulations.

Consultation

In December 2011, Finance Canada released a formal consultation paper on its website. The paper covered a wide range of proposed measures that serve to strengthen Canada's AML/ATF framework, and was open for public comment for a period of 71 days. Over 50 submissions were received from a wide range of reporting sectors and industry associations representing financial entities (banks, credit unions and trust companies), life insurance companies, securities dealers, MSBs, accountants, lawyers, casinos, real estate agents and dealers in precious metals and stones. A large majority of the submissions were supportive of the proposed measures, and some submissions included additional proposals. Finance Canada had follow-up meetings with private sector representatives to discuss their submissions.

Due to the high volume of measures proposed in the consultation paper, implementation of the required changes was divided into two sets of regulatory amendments. The first set of amendments was made to the regulations in 2016, and was published in the Canada Gazette, Part II, on June 29, 2016. This proposal represents the second set of amendments to the regulations.

From 2013 to 2015, Finance Canada implemented a targeted consultation strategy on both sets of the proposed amendments, which was supported by the use of discussion papers and informal discussions with key reporting entities (e.g. financial entities) impacted by the proposed amendments. In 2015 – 16, additional consultations were undertaken with financial institutions regarding virtual currency regulatory policy proposals.

Finally, the proposed amendments were also broadly discussed at the Advisory Committee on Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing.footnote4

While reporting entities have expressed concern with the implementation costs associated with the proposed amendments (e.g. those associated with updating their procedures, policies and systems and training their staff), overall, they are supportive of the intent and need for these changes.

Rationale

Money laundering and terrorist activity financing are a threat to the integrity of Canada's financial system and the security and safety of Canadians at home and abroad. Money laundering supports and perpetuates criminal activity by legitimizing the proceeds of crime. It can help criminals to harness more economic and social power, creating the right incentives for criminals to engage in more criminal activity.

Terrorist activity financing can pose a serious threat to Canada's national security and to Canada's domestic and international interests. Terrorist activity financing supports and sustains the activities of domestic and international terrorists that can result in terrorist attacks in Canada or abroad, causing destruction and loss of life. Furthermore, the economic consequences to Canada of terrorist activity financing can be significant if the funds raised are used to carry out a terrorist attack in Canada or against Canada's interests abroad.

A robust legislative and regulatory framework helps to prevent and deter money laundering and terrorist activity financing by ensuring that entities that provide access to the financial system know their customers and are vigilant. For example, the records that are kept by reporting entities, as required by the Act and its regulations, are available to police forces (upon procurement of a proper warrant) when investigating money laundering offences or to police forces and law enforcement and national security agencies when investigating terrorist activity financing offences. Such information could assist in the investigation, apprehension, and prosecution of money launderers and terrorist financiers.

The proposed amendments would strengthen Canada's AML/ATF Regime by aligning it with international standards, closing loopholes and ensuring it reflects ongoing changes in the operating environment (i.e. in response to FinTech and the ongoing modernization of the financial sector). They would also help to address the deficiencies identified by the FATF.

Implementation, enforcement and service standards

Under the Act, FINTRAC is designated as Canada's financial intelligence unit and the regulator responsible for administering and enforcing the Act and regulations.

FINTRAC's responsibilities include the overall supervision of reporting entities to determine compliance with the Act and regulations. Under the Act, reporting entities are required to comply with FINTRAC's information demands and to give all reasonable assistance when FINTRAC carries out its compliance responsibilities.

Once the proposed amendments are approved, FINTRAC would update its guidance to set out its expectations for how obligations are to be met as well as undertake possible outreach activities to ensure reporting entities are aware of the new obligations. FINTRAC would be responsible for enforcing the obligations and would scope them into their compliance examinations and processes. Should non-compliance be identified, FINTRAC could impose AMPs or take other enforcement actions.

The proposed amendments would come into force 12 months after their registration.
