CANADA: Banks can now disclose customer information without consent
Amendments to regulations under Canada's Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act will come into force in March 2025. The amendments will authorise Canadian banks to disclose customer information without consent and require regulated entities to report on any discrepancies found in the federal beneficial ownership registry. Government civil forfeiture offices will begin to receive financial intelligence disclosures from Canada's central financial intelligence unit. Anti-money laundering obligations will be extended to factoring companies, cheque-cashing businesses and financing and leasing companies.
