AUSTRAC has developed products for pubs and clubs that highlight money laundering and financial crime risks faced by Electronic Gaming Machine (EGM) venues.  

We encourage pubs and clubs to share these products with gaming floor and compliance staff to help protect their business from criminal exploitation and keep their communities safe.

The new posters are: 

• Staff awareness: This poster has been developed for staff working on the gaming floor, helping them to identify and report suspicious customer behaviour.
• Pubs and clubs - myths vs facts: This poster is a resource for compliance officers and can also be used to train staff. It addresses common misconceptions about money laundering and financial crime risks faced by EGM venues.

It’s essential that any suspicious behaviour is reported to AUSTRAC by submitting a suspicious matter report. 

Additional resources for pubs and clubs 

• Video animation on the value of suspicious matter reports
• Anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing resources for pubs and clubs
