Question

Do updates to the Country Risk Ratings in AML Accelerate (AMLA) and Risk Assessment Platform (RAP) take into account updates from DFAT?

Yes, our country risk methodology takes into account the latest information on financial sanctions from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT).

Updates from DAFT are incorporated into the AML Accelerate Country Risk Ratings as soon as reasonably possible, usually within a couple of days.
