Why FINTRAC Canadian Regulatory Risks Matter
If your business deals with finance, real estate, payments, or AML/CTF compliance, these updates could lead to increased risk—especially if you’re operating in Ontario, Quebec, or across the territories. New financial penalties and strengthened guidance mean small misalignments could lead to non-compliance. Tracking changes in published acts and regulations, ministerial press releases, and government monitoring becomes essential.
