Compliance

FINTRAC registration is the entry requirement. What we do beyond that is the standard we hold ourselves to. UVA Global’s compliance programme is risk-based, independently reviewed, and built to the expectations of the PCMLTFA and FATF — the global benchmark for financial crime prevention. Here is what every business that partners with us can rely on:

Know Your Business (KYB) & Customer Due Diligence

Every counterparty is subject to rigorous onboarding due diligence before a single transaction is processed. We verify legal entity structure, beneficial ownership, and risk profile. You will not be processed through an automated form and forgotten. You will be known.

AML Programme

Our anti-money laundering programme is risk-based and subject to regular independent review. It applies to every transaction, every corridor, and every counterparty relationship without exception. FATF-aligned and built for an institution that cannot afford reputational exposure.

Real-Time Transaction Screening & Monitoring

Every transaction is screened against OFAC, UN, EU, and Canadian sanctions lists in real time. Unusual transaction patterns are flagged, escalated, and reviewed. We do not process first and ask questions later.

Suspicious Transaction Reporting

We report. Every time. Any transaction giving reasonable grounds to suspect money laundering or terrorist financing is reported to FINTRAC in accordance with our legal obligations under the PCMLTFA. This is not optional. It is how we operate.

Large Cash Transaction Reporting

Cash transactions of CAD $10,000 or above are reported to FINTRAC as required. No exceptions, no thresholds managed around.

Record Keeping

Full transaction records retained for a minimum of five years. Audit-ready. Accessible. Available to regulators when required.
