The Australian Transaction Reports & Analysis Centre claims that Tabcorp breached money-laundering reporting laws on at least 100 separate occasions. It has launched civil action against the gaming group in the Federal Court, alleging that Tabcorp failed to report suspect transactions that were made via TAB betting accounts. Tabcorp could face fines of up to $A17m, although Deutsche Bank notes that the group could potentially be fined up to $A51m in total as two subsidiaries are also subject to the legal action.
