Who do we cover?

From 1 July 2026, Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Counter-Terrorism Financing (CTF) regulation extends to over 100,000 small to medium businesses in Australia.

Property and Real Estate

Keep every listing and settlement moving while you meet AUSTRAC’s new Tranche 2 rules. We streamline CDD for buyers, sellers and developers, automate risk checks at key contract milestones, and give principals a clear, audit‑ready view of every transaction.

Accounting and Corporate Services

Turn Tranche 2 from a threat into part of your value proposition. We help accountants and corporate service providers risk‑rate clients, capture beneficial owners and oversee trust and company structures, all with simple workflows your team can actually use.

Legal and Advisory Firms

Protect your practice as you advise on property, corporate and restructuring matters. Our platform embeds AML/CTF checks into your existing matter‑opening and trust‑account processes, and workflows, so partners can demonstrate strong governance without slowing down client service.

High‑Value Dealers, Pubs and Clubs

Stay ahead of AUSTRAC while you stay focused on your patrons and customers. We detect linked cash and virtual‑asset transactions around the A$10,000 threshold, guide staff through ID checks and red‑flag reviews, and keep your venue or showroom audit‑ready.

Funds and Trustees

Give investors and regulators confidence that every structure is under control. From onboarding beneficiaries and unit‑holders to monitoring complex ownership chains, we centralise AML/CTF oversight for schemes, trusts and managed accounts in one place.

Digital Assets and Payments

Build and scale innovative payment and crypto services with bank‑grade controls. Our engine supports Customer Due Diligence, travel‑rule data, ongoing monitoring and reporting for remitters, PSPs and virtual‑asset providers, so you can launch new products without losing regulatory sleep.

Home grown solution backed by global tech

AML Smart Guard’s Australian leadership team have decades of career long experience in risk and compliance solutions delivered and supported for both Australian and international banks and financial services firms.

Tranche 2 is an Australian problem. Our people live in the same regulatory environment you do, follow AUSTRAC’s updates as they land, and work every day with real estate, legal, accounting, corporate, gaming and digital‑asset clients facing the 1 July 2026 deadline.

We combine local AML/CTF expertise with practical experience inside Aussie firms, so when you call, you’re talking to someone who understands how your trust account works, how your practice software behaves, and what AUSTRAC is actually likely to look for in your sector.

Why a local team matters?

We interpret AUSTRAC guidance and starter kits for you, turning regulatory language into steps your staff can follow.
We know the pressures on Australian SMEs, especially Tranche 2 professionals without big‑bank compliance teams and design solutions that fit those constraints.
We stay close after go‑live, helping you adjust your program as AUSTRAC refines the rules and your business grows, rather than leaving you with a one‑off report.

With AML Smart Guard’s local Australian team, you’re getting an enterprise platform and expert delivery partner who understands AUSTRAC, understands your industry, and is here in your time zone to keep you confidently compliant.

Let us worry about AML compliance while you focus on your business.

Compliance as a Service. Our in-house experts manage every aspect of compliance, from KYC and ECDD to regulatory reporting.
