Get ready to say goodbye to lengthy AML processes and hello to a smoother conveyancing experience!
We are delighted to launch our new innovative AML check designed to enhance the way property professionals manage compliance and transactional due diligence.
OneSearch AML harnesses market-leading technology and offers conveyancers an up to date Know Your Client checker in the fight against fraud in the sector, all whilst ensuring adherence to recently updated industry standards and guidelines.
Ongoing monitoring New digital advancements have meant that previous methods of identity verification within the legal setting such as manually checking documents, face-to-face meetings, and waiting for postal deliveries for documents have become outdated. Now, with biometric scanning, NFC technology, secure encryption, and cloud-based storage, ID checks are a far more safe, accurate, and effortless part of the conveyancing process.
Furthermore, OneSearch AML offers ongoing monitoring checks, which provides post-sale examinations of any changes, developments, or updates to customers profiles over a 12-month period.
Robin Wells, Head of Sales Operations at OneSearch added: “The launch of OneSearch AML underlines our ongoing commitment to empowering conveyancers in navigating their day-to-day workflow, and in this case, support for any complexities that run alongside AML due diligence. “For us, we know and understand the complexities of KYC regulations of our clients – assessing risks, identifying suspicious activities, and especially ongoing monitoring are all imperative to our customers and to the industry as a whole. OneSearch AML solution delivers quick, secure, and accurate cover across all these areas.”
Challenges in Anti-Money Laundering Compliance The launch aligns with insights from the SRA’s Anti-Money Laundering annual report, revealed in October 2023, which highlighted certain areas needing attention within law firms. Among the observations, it was noted that a portion of reviewed firms, specifically 66 out of 224, require additional support to fully comply with anti-money laundering regulations. Unfortunately, the legal sector often faces challenges regarding money laundering, contributing to a broader concern around the flow of approximately £100 billion in illicit funds through UK businesses and financial institutions each year.
Elizabeth Jarvis, Managing Director at OneSearch said: “The message from the SRA annual report was clear. All legal firms need to ensure they are committing time and resources to counteract modern money laundering attempts, and we offer our strongest support with OneSearch AML. “The service has been created to be the single, comprehensive solution for our customers, easing any worry or burden they may have over how best to comply with all relevant standards and guidelines.”
To celebrate the big 3-0, staff up and down England and Scotland were in party mode with fun days in each office, which included breakfast, games, and a team walk, and OneSearch were no different!
“Our goal is to make property transactions feel effortless – for everyone. We’re redefining what’s possible and plan to be at the forefront of innovation for many years to come.”

🏠 Here’s to the next 30 years of streamlining transactions and transforming the property industry!
This weekend saw OneSearch host a corporate hospitality day at Sandy Park, Exeter, to witness the West Country derby between Exeter Chiefs and Bath.
With this being the Chief’s penultimate home fixture of the season and with visitors Bath performing well in the Gallagher Premiership, this fixture was not to be missed!
James Shepherd, Regional Sales Manager for OneSearch, posted after the event: “A clinical display by Bath against the Exeter Chiefs was by far and away the only disappointment of a fantastic day hosting our OneSearch clients and guests at a sun-soaked Sandy Park on Saturday!!”
