About
We carry the compliance burden, so you can run your practice.
Australia is undergoing the largest expansion of its AML/CTF regime in two decades. Most newly captured firms have a hard obligation, no internal capability, and a strong reason to outsource. That's where we come in.
Our approach
Certainty, audit-readiness, and time back.
We build advisory depth in-house and buy proven technology for everything else — keeping us lean and focused on the judgement that matters. We maintain a library of segment-specific AML/CTF program templates, kept current with AUSTRAC guidance, and run defined workflows for every engagement so delivery is repeatable rather than bespoke each time.
We keep a clear separation between the teams that build programs and those that evaluate them, to preserve the independence the reforms require.
Boutique & relationship-led
Sized and priced for small and mid-sized reporting entities — not enterprise engagements.
AUSTRAC-terminology aligned
Our service definitions match the regulatory language, so nothing gets lost in translation.
Segment-specialised
Separate playbooks for remittance, accounting, legal and real estate.
Advice-first, technology-enabled
We integrate proven identity-verification tools and wrap judgement around them — you buy expertise, not just software.
General information only. Kestrel Assurance provides AML/CTF compliance services. Nothing on this site is legal, financial or regulatory advice. Obligations should be confirmed against current AUSTRAC guidance and, where appropriate, with qualified legal and accounting professionals.
