Document's name: On approval of the requirements for internal control rules developed by organizations engaged in transactions with cash or other property, and individual entrepreneurs, and on the invalidation of certain acts of the Government of the Russian Federation (as amended on September 11, 2018)
Document Number: 667
Type of document: Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation
Host body: Government of the Russian Federation
Status: current
Published: Collection of Legislation of the Russian Federation, N 28, 07/09/2012, art. 3901
Acceptance date: June 30, 2012
Effective start date: July 17, 2012
Revision date: September 11, 2018

On September 22, 2016, the text of Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of September 17, 2016 N 933 “On Amendments to Certain Acts of the Government of the Russian Federation” was published on the official Internet portal of legal information http://www.pravo.gov.ru.

This legal act shall enter into force seven days after the day of their first official publication. Thus, the effective date of Decree N 933 is September 30, 2016.

Decree N 933 amends the previously adopted acts of the Government of the Russian Federation, regulating both the organization and implementation of internal control in order to counteract the legalization (laundering) of proceeds from crime and the financing of terrorism (hereinafter referred to as AML/CFT).

In particular, significant changes are included in the Requirements for internal control rules developed by organizations carrying out transactions with cash or other property, and individual entrepreneurs, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of June 30, 2012 N 667.

In addition, the Regulations on the submission of information to the Federal Financial Monitoring Service by organizations engaged in transactions with cash or other property, and individual entrepreneurs and the submission by the Federal Financial Monitoring Service of requests to organizations engaged in transactions with funds or other property, have been amended and supplemented. and individual entrepreneurs, approved Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of March 19, 2014 N 209.

Amendments to the above acts of the Government of the Russian Federation are due to the need to bring them into line with the provisions of the wording of Federal Law No. 115-FZ of 07.08.2001 “On Counteracting the Legalization (Laundering) of Proceeds from Crime and the Financing of Terrorism”, which entered into force on 01/10/2016.

Recall that the main novelties of this edition of Federal Law N 115-FZ:

  • a new type of client is provided - a foreign structure without forming a legal entity, - an appropriate concept is introduced, and the corresponding requirements for identification are established;
  • the list of documents that can be required from clients during identification has been expanded
  • the obligation to document and submit to the authorized body information on all cases of refusal to conduct transactions on the grounds specified in paragraph 11 of Article 7 of Federal Law N 115-FZ has been extended to all AML/CFT entities (previously it was mandatory only for credit institutions, as well as non-credit financial institutions supervised by the Bank of Russia);
  • fixed general provisions on the procedure for forming and bringing to the attention of credit institutions, as well as non-bank financial institutions supervised by the Bank of Russia, the so-called "black list of refuseniks".

However, in order to implement a number of provisions of Federal Law N 115-FZ, as amended on 01/10/2016, amendments to by-laws were required, which was done by the Resolution N 933 under consideration after only eight months.

Let us consider in more detail the content of the changes and additions that come into force on September 30, 2016.

Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of June 30, 2012 N 667

The following fundamental and important changes can be distinguished.

1) It is established that "The head of the organization and the individual entrepreneur ensure control over the compliance of the applied internal control rules with the requirements of the legislation of the Russian Federation." This addendum establishes a specific person who is responsible for the content of the internal control rules and the timing of their updating in accordance with changes in legislation.

It should be noted that it is a long-established practice to bring to administrative responsibility (including for non-compliance of the content of internal control rules with the requirements of the law) precisely the leading officials.

“The internal control rules must be brought into line by the organization and the individual entrepreneur with the requirements of regulatory legal acts on combating the legalization (laundering) of proceeds from crime and the financing of terrorism no later than one month after the date of entry into force of the specified regulatory legal acts, unless otherwise established such regulatory legal acts.

A period has been established during which AML/CFT entities not supervised by the Bank of Russia must have their own internal control rules.

Earlier, Rosfinmonitoring, referring to the lack of legislative regulation of this issue, repeatedly recommended that AML / CFT entities make appropriate changes to their internal control rules within 30 calendar days from the date of entry into force of changes affecting the content of internal control rules in Federal Law No. 115- Federal Law or other normative legal acts in the field of AML / CFT (Information letter of Rosfinmonitoring dated 03.09.2012 N 20, Information message dated 05.17.2016).

Previously, in practice, there were cases when the supervisory authority, during the audit, qualified under Part 1 of Art. 15.27 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, the absence of an immediate update of the internal control rules after the entry into force of changes in legislation.

Thus, in particular, the Interregional Department of the Federal Financial Monitoring Service for the Southern Federal District, following the results of the inspection of the activities of the real estate agency, in the Inspection Act dated 06/30/2015, in addition to other identified violations, indicated that “at the time of the inspection, the company uses internal control rules from 01/01/2015. At the same time, these internal control rules do not comply with the current legislation in the field of combating the legalization (laundering) of proceeds from crime and the financing of terrorism, since they are not brought into line with the amendments made by Federal Law No. 140 of 08.06.2015.”

The Arbitration Court, considering the application for declaring illegal and canceling the decision to bring to administrative responsibility in the form of an administrative fine in the amount of 50,000 rubles, indicated that “The Company uses the internal control rules of 01.01.2015 in its work, however, these rules do not comply with current legislation , since they are not brought into line with the amendments made by Federal Law No. 140-FZ dated 08.06.2015.”

The decision of the court of appeal states the following: “In the opinion of the company, in accordance with the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated June 30, 2012 No. legal act which have been amended accordingly. According to the program for organizing the internal control of the company, such changes are made within 30 days from the date of entry into force of the regulatory legal act. Thus, the obligation to bring the internal control rules in line could be fulfilled before 07/09/2015. However, the documents, the results of the study of which revealed an imputed violation, are submitted for verification before the expiration of the specified period - 06/25/2015.

This argument of the company is not accepted by the court of appeal. The relevant regulatory legal act, to which the applicant refers, does not contain a provision providing for the right of the organization to independently determine the period for bringing the internal control rules in line with the current legislation. Amendments to Law No. 115-FZ were made by Federal Law No. 140-FZ of 08.06.2015, which entered into force from the date of official publication (published on the official Internet portal of legal information http://www.pravo.gov.ru - 08.06. 2015). At the time of the audit, these changes were in effect, but the company did not take them into account in the internal control rules.”

The court of cassation terminated the proceedings on the complaint, referring to the fact that in the case under consideration judicial acts cannot be appealed to the court of cassation.

Currently, the complaint of the real estate agency has been accepted for consideration by the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation.

Note that the position Supreme Court of the Russian Federation in the case under consideration (if the complaint is considered on the merits) can have a significant impact on the practice of applying the provisions of Federal Law N 115-FZ to the activities of realtors, since one of the arguments of the cashier is that the activities of the company during the audited period are not subject to the Federal Law N 115-FZ.

2) Another innovation is the indication that internal control rules must be drawn up on paper.

3) The requirements for the content of the program for identifying customers, customer representatives and (or) beneficiaries, as well as beneficial owners have been changed. Most of the changes are of a technical and stylistic nature, aimed at eliminating inaccuracies in the wording.

4) The requirements for the content of other internal control programs have been specified and supplemented:

  • a program that regulates the course of action in case of refusal to execute a client's order to complete a transaction;
  • a program that regulates the procedure for suspending operations in accordance with the Federal Law;
  • a program that regulates the procedure for applying measures to freeze (block) funds or other property.

Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of March 19, 2014 N 209

The main change is an indication of the need to submit to the Federal Financial Monitoring Service information on cases of refusal to execute a client's order to make a transaction with cash or other property on the grounds specified in paragraph 11 of Article 7 of the Federal Law.

Other changes relate to the elimination of inaccuracies in the wording and clarification of references to specific provisions of the Federal Law N 115-FZ.

The next step to ensure the possibility of implementing in practice the obligation of AML / CFT entities to inform the authorized body about cases of refusal to execute the client's order to complete the transaction should be to introduce changes:

  • in the Order of Rosfinmonitoring dated April 22, 2015 N 110 “On approval of the Instruction on the submission to the Federal Service for Financial Monitoring of information provided for by the Federal Law of August 7, 2001 N 115-FZ “On counteracting the legalization (laundering) of proceeds from crime, and financing of terrorism” (with subsequent registration with the Ministry of Justice);
  • to Rosfinmonitoring Order No. 261 dated August 27, 2015 “On approval of the description of the formats of formalized electronic messages, the direction of which is provided for by the Instruction on submitting information to the Federal Financial Monitoring Service provided for by Federal Law No. 115-FZ dated August 7, 2001 “On counteracting legalization ( laundering) of proceeds from crime and the financing of terrorism”, approved by order of the Federal Financial Monitoring Service of April 22, 2015 N 110, and recommendations for filling them out”.

NEED TO MAKE CHANGES

INTERNAL CONTROL RULES FOR AML/CFT PURPOSE

For non-bank financial institutions, no changes to the internal control rules are required.

For AML/CFT entities not supervised by the Bank of Russia, when determining the deadline for making changes to the internal control rules, now one should be guided by the provisions of paragraph 1 (1) of Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 667 dated June 30, 2012.

Thus, the internal control rules should be updated no later than October 30, 2016.

INTERNAL TRAINING IS REQUIRED

Non-credit financial organizations

Despite the fact that the changes made to Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of March 19, 2014 N 209, in essence, do not apply to the relevant areas of activity of non-credit financial organizations, in order to minimize the risks of subjective claims from employees of supervisory authorities, we recommend that targeted (unscheduled) briefing be carried out in until October 05, 2016 (Clause 3.4 of Bank of Russia Ordinance No. 3471-U dated December 5, 2014 “On Requirements for Training and Education of Personnel in Non-Bank Financial Institutions”):

Other AML/CFT entities

The legislation does not establish the terms for additional briefing when changing the existing regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation in the field of AML / CFT, as well as when the organization approves new or changes the existing ICR.

Therefore, it is advisable to conduct such briefing as soon as possible.

The current legislation does not require the issuance of any administrative act (order or instruction) for conducting internal training in the field of AML/CFT.

Thus, it is enough to draw up a document confirming the fact of the training, containing an indication of the date of the corresponding briefing, its subject, as well as the signature of the employee who underwent the training.
