COMPLIANCE WITH AMLFC INSTITUTE POLICIES, GUIDELINES, AND BY-LAWS
An AMLFC active member should accept only those assignments that are in alignment with the relevant AML/CFT policies, laws, rules and regulations that govern our work. Members who fail to do so will be subject to disciplinary action if the actions of such member are determined to have contravened AMLFC Policies. As practitioners and representatives of our profession, a member/non-member must not condone or assist others in engaging in illegal behavior, illegal or unethical conduct must be reported to the Board of Regents for a resolution. A conduct review will result through one or more of the following:

- 3. The BOR shall at its discretion investigate available circumstantial evidence to corroborate the information from each complaint involving a contended ethical violation within a potentially actionable complaint.
- 4. If the BOR determines that a violation has not occurred, the complaint shall be dismissed with written notice to the affected member, as well as to the member or third party of interest who submitted.
- 5. In the case of a legal proceeding initiated as a result of AMLC’s administration of its policies; the member shall bear their own costs and may be subject to reimbursement of AMLFC’s cost in cases where a legal petition is filed by the member in regards to AMLFC Institutes process or decisions based on the guidelines herein.
If a member who is the subject of a complaint voluntarily resigns (in writing) his or her membership in AMLFC INSTITUTE at any time during the pendency of a potentially actionable complainant; under the procedures herein, the complaint shall be dismissed with notice to known interested parties. The member’s record shall be sealed except for AMLFC Institute use, cases deemed actionable by outside legal counsel, or instances requiring the notification of law enforcement or regulatory bodies. A member who resigns his/her AMLFC membership during the pendency of a potentially actionable complaint may not apply for membership in the AMLFC INSTITUTE for a period of five years from the effective date of the resignation.
MEMBERSHIP IN THE EVENT OF CONVICTION OR REGULATORY SANCTION
If a member has been found by a recognized court to have committed a felony or has been sanctioned by a regulatory or governing body, the BOR retains the right to independently review that member’s status. Members with felony conviction not granted exception to this section of the code of conduct shall be (in the case of the member) expelled from AMLFC membership or (in the case of the applicant) denied membership. In both instances, the individual retains the right to reapply for membership after a reasonable passage of time or file an appeal for a pardon by AMLFC Institute’s Management. The judgment regarding re-entry will be determined by the BOR of the AMLFC Institute or its sub-committee designate.
SANCTIONS IN THE EVENT A CODE VIOLATION IS FOUND TO BE SUBSTANTIATED
Upon determining there is a violation of the Code of Conduct, By-laws, or Guidelines of the AMLFC Institute, the BOR shall review and make recommendations based upon the facts admitted to the record of a complaint. Recommendations Include:
- 1. Written Reprimand- Written warning that members actions are not in accordance with the AMLFC Institute’s expectation of acceptable or ethical conduct per its guidelines, by-laws or code of conduct.
- 2.

- 4. Permanent Suspension - Permanent Revocation of certification & membership in the AMLFC INSTITUTE as to require re-application for membership and the retaking of the course upon a significant passage of time.
Pardon – Upon a reasonable passage of time from the BOR’s implementation of sanctions; a former or sanctioned member of the AMLFC Institute may choose to file a request for pardon in writing. The BOR will be under no obligation to consider such written requests but may determine, with discretion as granted by the bylaws of the BOR, that the sanctioned member in violation of the Code can be offered the opportunity too: submit a written acknowledgment of past violations, assure the BOR that the sanctioned conduct has ceased and commit that no future code of conduct violation will occur. Approval of the pardon will be at the discretion of the BOR or its designated sub-committee; while application for approval to recertify and hold the Institute’s designation will require the approval of AMLFC Institute Leadership.
EXCELLENCE
It shall be considered a violation of the AMLFC Institute’ Code of Conduct if it is found that a member or third party with interest, participates in an event motivated by prejudice toward a person or group because of factors such as national origin, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, disability, age, gender, marital status, or any group/class protected by state or federal law which may result in stronger sanctions than noted herein.
All member’s or third party’s with interest must disclose personal or business conflict of interests with matter’s under review; further, they must abstain from discussions or votes on issues relevant to aforementioned disclosed or known conflicts.
The AMLFC Institute seeks not only to provide excellence in the services we provide to our members, but also seeks to ensure the services our members provide to their respective clients and employers remain consistent with its policies. The AMLFC Institute upholds that all parties, through practicing responsibility, integrity and compliance to the relevant internal & external policies, guidelines, jurisdiction laws, and regulations will promote excellence in the AML/ CFT Industry.
