Swift Lawyers Limited was penalised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) after failings were found in relation to checks carried out with regards to "risks of money laundering and terrorist financing". The firm, which is based at Tymark House on Breightmet Street in the town centre, was fined £12,759 by the industry body. The practice was said to have failed to have had a documented assessment of the risks of money laundering and terrorist financing between 2017 and 2024. "This resulted in a referral to our AML Investigations Team, where breaches of the Money Laundering Regulations 2007 (MLRs 2007) were also identified. It adds: "Between 6 October 2011 and 25 June 2017, the firm failed to establish and maintain appropriate and risk-sensitive policies and procedures."
