Important Update: Strengthening our AML compliance together

At HJK Accountants, we are committed to protecting your business and upholding the highest professional standards. As part of this commitment, we have recently implemented new Anti-Money Laundering (AML) software in line with Irish AML legislation.

This upgrade strengthens our compliance framework and ensures both our firm and our clients remain fully protected.

What this means for you

Over the coming weeks, we will be reviewing our AML records and contacting some clients to complete identity verification through a secure online system.

  • You will receive an email with step-by-step instructions.

  • The process is quick, safe, and should only take a few minutes.

  • Even if you have been a valued client for many years, we are legally required to refresh and verify all records.

We appreciate that this may feel unnecessary in long-standing relationships, but AML regulations require every firm to maintain accurate, up-to-date client information.

Your security comes first

We know that safeguarding personal data is a top priority. Our new AML platform uses advanced encryption and secure storage protocols to keep your information safe.

  • Your documents will only be used for compliance purposes.

  • Information is never shared beyond what is legally required.

  • You can complete the process with confidence that your details are protected.

Why compliance benefits you

Completing this verification process doesn’t just meet our legal obligations; it brings real advantages to you as a client:

  • Protects your business against financial crime
  • Keeps our records accurate and efficient
  • Demonstrates to regulators, banks and stakeholders that you are working with a fully compliant firm

By strengthening compliance, we strengthen trust and ensure smoother business interactions for you.

What to expect

Here’s what will happen next:

  1. You will receive an email from HJK Accountants with a link to our secure verification system.

  2. Follow the instructions to upload your identification documents.

  3. The process is simple and should take only a few minutes to complete.

  4. Our team will be on hand to answer any questions along the way

We want this process to be as straightforward as possible. If you have any queries or concerns, please reach out to us by emailing enquiries@hjk.ie and calling 021-4806316

We truly appreciate your cooperation and support as we work together to maintain the highest standards of compliance and client service.

Thank you for helping us make this process smooth and secure.
