An AUSTRAC Compliance Proposal for Asset Buyers

AUSTRAC ready.
In time for 1 July.

From 1 July, buyer's agents will need to verify clients, screen for sanctions, file reports, and run a compliance program. Detekta gives you everything to meet AUSTRAC's new rules. One platform, one monthly fee, and a real compliance officer behind it if you want one.

Detekta × AssetBuyers
A simple, affordable way to make Asset Buyers AUSTRAC-compliant for Tranche 2, built around your team and your clients.

Six things buyer's agents will have to do from 1 July.

AUSTRAC's new rules apply to real estate professionals from 1 July 2026. Here's the plain-English version of what your firm needs in place.

1

Onboarding your clients

Before you act for a buyer, you'll have to confirm who they are using government-issued ID and verify them against trusted data sources. The compliance world calls this KYC (Know Your Customer).

Detekta handles this in 60 seconds
2

Onboarding business clients

When your client is buying through a company, trust, or SMSF, you'll need to confirm the entity exists, who owns it, and who controls it. This is KYB (Know Your Business) and beneficial-ownership verification.

3

Checking the sanctions and PEP lists

Every client (and every owner behind a corporate client) has to be checked against international sanctions, politically exposed person (PEP) lists, and adverse-media databases.

Included free. Continuous monitoring after onboarding.
4

Having an AML/CTF program (Part A & B)

Your firm needs a written compliance program describing how you'll meet your obligations. This is the document AUSTRAC asks for when you register, and what they inspect during audits.

Drafted by our AI, reviewed by us. Submit it the same day.
5

Suspicious matter reports (SMRs)

If something looks off, you must report it to AUSTRAC within a strict deadline. You need a process for spotting it, documenting the case, and filing the report.

Our case management does this. Nancy (our AI) flags the cases.
6

Staff training and ongoing obligations

Every team member who interacts with clients must complete AML training before 1 July, and again as roles change or rules update.

Built-in LMS module. Records auto-kept for audit.

One platform. Everything you need.

The same six obligations, mapped to the modules built into Detekta. Nothing extra to buy.

👤

Onboarding people

Verify a buyer's identity in under a minute. Driver's licence, passport, biometric face match, AML and sanctions check. They can do it on their phone.

Industry term: KYC, electronic verification
🏢

Onboarding businesses

Look up any AU/NZ/UK company. Get directors, shareholders, the full ownership tree, financial status, and a sanctions check on every owner, in one click.

Industry term: KYB, UBO discovery
📋

AI-drafted AML/CTF program

Tell Detekta what your firm does and our AI drafts your AUSTRAC Part A and Part B program in about 8 minutes. We review it before you submit.

Replaces consultants billing $10k–$30k
📚

Staff training (LMS)

Built-in training modules. Assign each role its mandatory courses. Completion tracked. Certificates auto-issued. Audit-ready records.

No separate LMS needed
🚨

Case management

Every alert, every red flag, every customer change shows up in one dashboard. Nancy, our AI fraud specialist, triages each case and only escalates what needs your attention.

Built for small firms. Run by people who care.

Asset Buyers is a boutique with fewer clients and more attention. So is Detekta. The platform and the partnership are built around that.

🤝

You get a real partner

On the Pro plan, Ricardo isn't a chatbot or a ticketing system. He's a registered MLRO, sits on your team, and answers your phone. You'll know his number.

🛡️

Built for AUSTRAC

The platform and the AI are designed around Tranche 2's specific requirements for real estate professionals. We're not retrofitting a banking tool.

💰

Honest, transparent pricing

Two plans. Published rates. Special pricing for Asset Buyers locked in for the term. No surprise renewals, no per-entity gotchas, no Enterprise quote-traps.
