General Statement on Observance of Anti-Money Laundering Requirements / Anti-Money Laundering Policy / AML-Questionnaires
It is the policy of ODDO BHF AG to take all reasonable and appropriate steps to prevent relationships to persons engaged in money laundering, fraud or other financial crime, including the financing of terrorism.
In 1993 an anti-money laundering law was introduced in Germany. All banks and other financial service providers in Germany have to adhere to this law.
The respective supervisory body, the "Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht - The Federal Financial Supervisory Authority" (BaFin), has implemented detailed regulations and guidance for standards and control mechanisms
within banks and financial service providers.
The compliance with these regulations is supervised by external auditors in connection with their preparation of the Bank's Annual Report. A copy of the auditor's report is forwarded to the "BaFin".
For further information on money laundering prevention in ODDO BHF AG, please see our downloads.
