Under the Money Laundering Regulations 2007, arranging for the sale of a client's shareholdings (1) and advising on insurance policies in connection with property transactions (2) are considered relevant business activities because they involve financial and property transactions. However, drafting a standard will (3) and providing general legal advice (4) are not typically regulated activities under these regulations unless they involve specific financial or property-related advice, such as tax planning.
Key Point: This question assesses knowledge of what constitutes relevant business under the Money Laundering Regulations 2007. Understanding which activities require compliance with anti-money laundering procedures is essential for legal professionals to avoid regulatory breaches.
