Legal Obligations
Olympia operates in accordance with Australian anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing legislation, including the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (AML/CTF Act). The platform is legally required to identify, assess, and mitigate the risk of money laundering and terrorism financing across all services.

Suspicious Activity Reporting
Where the platform identifies activity that raises reasonable grounds for suspicion, it is legally obligated to submit a Suspicious Matter Report (SMR) to AUSTRAC. This reporting obligation exists regardless of whether any loss or harm has occurred.
Consequences of Policy Violations
If your account is identified as being involved in potential money laundering or terrorism financing activity, the following actions may be taken:
- Temporary or permanent restriction of account access
- Freezing of funds pending investigation
- Full account closure without prior notice
