What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Walthamstow Village? Why is this being asked of me?
In order to comply with Money Laundering Regulations any Walthamstow Village conveyancing firm will require proof of identity in all conveyancing transactions. This is normally dealt with by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility account showing where you live.
Under Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancers are required to ascertain not only the identity of conveyancing clients but also the source of fund that they receive in respect of any matter. Refusal to disclose this may lead to your conveyancer terminating their retainer with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.
Your property lawyers will have an obligation to make a disclosure to the relevant authorities should they believe that any monies received by them may contravene the Money Laundering Regulations.
