Anti-Money Laundering

Anti-Money Laundering Policy

Money laundering is the act of converting money or other monetary instruments gained from illegal activity into money or investments that appear to be legitimate, so that its illegal source cannot be traced. Domestic and international laws that apply to companies, whose customers can deposit and withdraw funds from their accounts.

BaseTrade strictly follows the provisions of the anti-money laundering and counter terrorism financing policy and demands that its employees fully observe these standards. The Company therefore takes all necessary measures to detect and counter money laundering and terrorism financing. The internal rules are observed in accordance with the relevant international requirements.

BaseTrade anti-money laundering procedures

Implemented Procedures

The objective of Anti-Money laundering procedures that BaseTrade implements is to ensure that customers engaging in certain activities are identified to a reasonable standard, while minimizing the compliance burden and impact on legitimate customers. BaseTrade is committed to assisting governments combat the threat of money laundering and financing terrorist activities around the world. For that purpose, BaseTrade has set up a highly sophisticated electronic system. This system documents and verifies client identification records, and tracks and maintains detailed records of all transactions.

BaseTrade carefully tracks suspicious and significant transaction activities, and reports such activities “providing timely and comprehensive information” to law enforcement bodies. To uphold the integrity of reporting systems and to safeguard businesses, the legislative framework provides legal protection to providers of such information.
BaseTrade reserves the right to refuse to process a transfer at any stage, where it believes the transfer to be connected in any way to money laundering or criminal activity. It is forbidden for BaseTrade to inform customers that they have been reported for suspicious activity.

Clients’ identification and verification

For the purpose of complying with Anti-Money laundering laws, BaseTrade requires two different documents to verify the identity of the customer. The first document we require is a legal government-issued, identifying document with the picture of the customer on it. It may be a government issued passport, driver’s license (for countries where the driver’s license is a primary identification document) or local ID card (no company access cards). The second document we require is a bill with the customer’s own name and actual address on it issued 3 months ago at the earliest. It may be a utility bill, a bank statement, an affidavit, or any other document with the customer’s name and address from an internationally recognized organization.

Customers are required to submit up to date identification and contact information in a timely manner, as soon as changes occur.

Documents in non-western letters must be translated into English by an official translator; the translation must be stamped and signed by the translator and sent together with the original document with a clear picture of the customer on it
