AML and Customer Due Diligence Basics Alongside Material Information

Two different jobs

Anti-money laundering checks verify identity and risk in line with your firm's policies. Material information verifies property facts for buyers. They interact in workflow, but they do not replace each other.

Practical takeaway

Keep audit trails for both: who verified what, and when.

Not legal advice

Follow your firm's MLRO guidance and current regulations.

What to check next

Use [Property Passport UK](/search) to open the property by address or postcode, then review official context alongside anything you save as Documents for your own workflow.

How Property Passport UK helps

Property Passport UK brings address-level context together in one place so you can prepare questions for your conveyancer and surveyor without treating a portal listing as proof. It does not replace HM Land Registry title, searches, or professional advice.
