      Solution

      Under Section 2 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, a reporting entity means a banking company, financial institution, intermediary, or a person carrying on a designated business or profession. Designated businesses and professions include, for example, certain dealers in precious metals and stones and others as notified. Reporting entities bear the compliance obligations relating to client verification, record-keeping and reporting. The wide definition extends anti-money-laundering obligations across the financial and certain non-financial sectors.
