Objective

The objective of the internal manual is to provide a high-level assessment of the operations and services provided by Instaspin, and the risks Companies have in relation to that they may facilitate money laundering (“ML”) or terrorist financing (“TF”). Instaspin sets out the policies, procedures, systems and controls necessary to meet its obligations as defined in its licence conditions and relevant legislation, being:

  • BE : “Law of 18 September 2017 on the prevention of money laundering limitation of the use of cash"

The above list is not exhaustive and as a case of best practice, Instaspin complies with international standards where no Curacao regulation or legislation is in force.

The procedures that are appropriate for the purpose of forestalling and preventing ML and countering TF include:

  • Player Identification
  • Record keeping
  • Internal procedures including the reporting of suspicious transactions, both internal and external
  • Staff education, training and development

Instaspin will assess the ML and TF risks it faces, and implement appropriate measures in respect of the above based on its assessment.
