With 140 days until the 1 July 2026 deadline, we break down AUSTRAC's Accounting Program Starter Kit and show you exactly where to begin. In this session of the AML Accountants Forum, Clayton Wood (Seamlss Co-Founder) and Agnieszka Szczepanik (Lyra Risk & Compliance) walk through: → The 4 layers of the AUSTRAC Starter Kit (core documents, personnel forms, client forms, maintenance forms) → Why the Policy Document and Risk Assessment must come first → How the risk assessment methodology works (high/medium/low) → The 5-month implementation game plan (Feb–June 2026) → Pre-commencement customers: what triggers a CDD check → Designated services: which ones apply to your firm → Beneficial ownership requirements (25% control threshold) → Ongoing audit and reporting obligations → Real Q&A from practitioners covering sole practitioners, bookkeepers, firm acquisitions, and more The AUSTRAC Accounting Program Starter Kit was released on 29 January 2026.
