Triggering Activities
Determine How a determination is made Obligations Record Keeping
Account opening Periodic monitoring of existing account holders Detect a fact for existing account holders EFTI or EFTO of $100,000 or more
Foreign PEP
Take reasonable measures for all of the triggering activities to determine if the person is a foreign PEP or a family member or close associate of a foreign PEP. If the determination is yes, you must carry out the associated obligations.
Action to take if a determination is made: Take reasonable measures to establish the source of the funds that have been, will be or are expected to be deposited into the account or that are used for an outgoing EFT. Ensure that a member of senior management reviews the transaction or approves keeping the account open. Apply policies and procedures for high-risk clients. Part of that includes enhanced ongoing monitoring of the account activities to detect suspicious transactions that must be reported.
You must record: the office or position of the PEP or HIO; the name of the organization or institution of the PEP or HIO; the source of the funds, if known, that were used for the transaction or that have been, will be or are expected to be deposited into the account; the date you determined the individual to be a PEP, HIO, their family member or close associate; the name of the member of senior management who reviewed the transaction or approved keeping the account open; and, the date the transaction was reviewed or the account was approved to stay open. You may want to include the nature of the relationship between your client and the PEP or HIO, as applicable.
Domestic PEP or HIO
Take reasonable measures at account opening, or as part of your periodic review, to determine if a person is a domestic PEP, a HIO, or a family member of one of those persons. A determination is made because a fact is detected that identifies an existing account holder as a domestic PEP, a HIO, or their family member or close associate. Take reasonable measures to determine if the person sending or receiving an EFT of $100,000 or more, is a domestic PEP, a HIO, or their family member or close associate. If the determination is yes, AND you assess the client as a high risk for a money laundering or terrorist financing offence, you must carry out the

Unsuccessful reasonable measures record
Subsection 67.3 of the Regulations: where the reasonable measure is unsuccessful, the reporting entity must keep a record of: 1. The measure taken; 2. The date on which each measure was taken; and, 3. The reasons why the measures were unsuccessful. Example If an MSB is processing a large cash transaction and you ask the customer if they are receiving the funds on behalf of a third party and the individual refuses to answer yes or no. You would need to record that you asked the person, the date you asked and the fact that the person refused to answer.

Developments relating to new technologies and their impact • You will have to consider money laundering or terrorist
financing risks that may arise because of new products and new business practices, including new delivery channels, and the use of new or developing technologies for both new and existing products.
Why was this requirement added? • The requirement was added to ensure that reporting entities
are aware of the money laundering and terrorist financing vulnerabilities posed by implementing new technologies, in order to mitigate the risk.
