Last updated: April 2025 · Anti-Money Laundering & Know Your Customer Policy
PrimeTrade is firmly committed to preventing money laundering, terrorist financing, and any other financial crimes on the AEGET platform. This policy outlines our obligations and your responsibilities as a user.
1. Introduction
PrimeTrade ("we", "us", "our") has implemented this Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) Policy in accordance with applicable laws and international financial standards. We are committed to cooperating fully with relevant authorities and regulatory bodies.
2. Our AML Program
Our AML compliance program includes the following components:
- Customer identification and verification (KYC)
- Ongoing transaction monitoring and suspicious activity reporting
- Screening against international sanctions lists (OFAC, UN, EU, and others)
- Record-keeping of all customer data and transactions for a minimum of 5 years
- Regular staff training on AML/CFT procedures
- Independent auditing of AML controls
3. Know Your Customer (KYC) Requirements
All users are required to verify their identity before accessing full platform features. KYC verification requires:
- Identity verification: Government-issued photo ID (passport, national ID card, or driver's license)
- Proof of address: Utility bill, bank statement, or official document dated within 3 months
- Selfie verification: A live photo matching the submitted ID may be required
- Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD): Required for high-risk accounts or large transactions — additional source-of-funds documentation may be requested
4. Prohibited Users
AEGET does not accept users who are:
- Residents or nationals of sanctioned countries/territories
- Listed on OFAC, UN Security Council, EU, or other international sanctions lists
- Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) without enhanced due diligence approval
- Involved in illegal activities, including drug trafficking, terrorism, or financial fraud
5. Transaction Monitoring
PrimeTrade employs automated and manual systems to monitor transactions for unusual patterns, including but not limited to:
- Unusually large or rapid transactions inconsistent with user profile
- Multiple transactions just below reporting thresholds ("structuring")
- Transactions involving high-risk jurisdictions
- Attempts to use the platform for layering or placement of illicit funds
6. Suspicious Activity Reporting
If we detect suspicious activity, we are legally required to file a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) with the appropriate financial intelligence unit. We are prohibited by law from disclosing to you that a SAR has been filed. Accounts under investigation may be suspended without prior notice.
