What an HMRC inspection asks to see

Public registers can't show whether these exist inside a practice — which is exactly why the evidence file matters. The Money Laundering Regulations 2017 set the same standing expectations for every supervised accountancy firm, whoever the supervisor:

Registered with an AML supervisor
MLR 2017, Part 6
A review asks to see: Your registration — HMRC checks its own register; this page shows your entry.
Firm-wide risk assessment
MLR 2017, reg 18
A review asks to see: A written, dated risk assessment specific to your practice — not an undated template.
Policies, controls & procedures
MLR 2017, reg 19
A review asks to see: A written PCP document proportionate to your size, kept up to date and evidenced to staff.
Nominated officer (MLRO)
MLR 2017, reg 21
A review asks to see: The appointment on record, and staff knowing who receives internal reports.
Client due diligence + ongoing monitoring
MLR 2017, regs 27–28
A review asks to see: A per-client file: identity verified, screening outcome, risk level, and reg 28(11) ongoing monitoring with a dated record every run — a documented "no change" is evidence.
Staff training
MLR 2017, reg 24
A review asks to see: A log of who was trained, when, and on what — awareness undocumented is awareness unproven.
Record-keeping
MLR 2017, reg 40
A review asks to see: CDD records retained five years and retrievable — scattered inboxes fail this in practice.

Quick answers

Is Jacques & Associates Limited registered for anti-money-laundering supervision?

On the HMRC Anti-Money-Laundering Supervised Business Register, Jacques & Associates Limited appears with status APPROVED (registration number XFML00000131106).

If any detail is out of date, email hello@practiceguard.uk and we'll correct it within one working day.

What does an AML review expect of Jacques & Associates Limited?

The same as for every supervised accountancy firm: a written, dated firm-wide risk assessment; policies, controls and procedures; a nominated officer (MLRO); a per-client due-diligence file with identity verified and ongoing monitoring recorded; a staff-training log; and records kept for five years and retrievable. Public registers can't show whether these exist inside a practice — which is why the evidence file matters. This describes the standing duties in the Money Laundering Regulations 2017, not an assessment of this firm.
