AMMF - April 1st
 | Changes to Australia's AML/KYC Rules | Broker Partners,
Please be advised of enhanced Australia's Anti-Money Laundering and Know Your Customer (AML/KYC) laws and what those changes mean for you.
What is changing and when
New AML/KYC rules come into effect on 1 April 2026. These changes affect how authorised credit representatives undertake due diligence to checking, verifying, and accurately recording customer identities. This includes checks and verifications through third parties. Why This matters: Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC)
All customer identification details must be recorded accurately and exactly as they appear on official identity documents to meet our AUSTRAC compliance obligations, including: - Full legal name
- Driver’s licence number
- Date of birth
- Residency and visa status
- Residential address.
Errors or omissions may lead to serious regulatory consequences. Please exercise due diligence and confirm details with the customer if there is any uncertainty.
Why Accurate Information Is Critical All AML/KYC checks rely entirely on the accuracy of information captured at the application stage. Accurate customer identification is a legal requirement under AML/KYC legislation. Incomplete or incorrect data may result in: - Failed identity verification checks
- Processing delays for your customers
Thank you for your continued partnership and commitment to compliance

How CCR is supporting more informed credit decisions Branded has used CCR since October 2025, contributing our own data and accessing Experian's CCR credit reports. CCR provides a more complete view of a customer’s repayment history by including both positive and negative repayment information. This helps our credit teams form a more balanced view of an applicant’s history. Although outcomes will always depend on individual circumstances, many introducers have told us they’re finding our assessments clearer and, in some cases, are noticing faster decisions. |

PLENTI COMMERCIAL - February 11th
To recap, over the past year, we’ve been listening closely to brokers - understanding where friction exists, what slows deals down, and what a modern commercial lender should look like in practice. That feedback has shaped our commercial transformation, and phase one is now underway.
This is about building a broker-first commercial platform that’s faster, clearer, and easier to do business with
|
|
|
| Advance Payments
Designed to bring Plenti in line with standard commercial market structures, while giving you greater flexibility to structure competitive deals and unlock lower monthly repayments. |
|
|
| Simplified rate card
We’ve consolidated asset age bands and simplified the overall structure to make pricing clearer and easier to apply across more eligible assets. The result: faster deal structuring, less complexity, and greater confidence at the submission stage. |
|
|
Key policy changes live today: |
|
|
| Tier 1 ABN tenure reduced
Earlier access to Tier 1 pricing and policy, with ABN tenure now reduced to 3 years. |
|
|
| Exposure limits increased
More capacity for repeat customers, with exposure now up to $300k for established Plenti borrowers. |
|
|
| Tier 3 NAF increased
Tier 3 NAF increased up to $50k, alongside the GST tenure requirement of 3 months. |
|
|
| Exiting Tier 3 non-GST
Simplified policy alignment with cleaner segmentation and stronger portfolio quality. |
|
|
What’s coming in March 2026: |
|
|
We’re preparing to roll out a major expansion of our Commercial truck offering - designed to support larger vehicle transactions with greater flexibility. More details coming very soon.
This is just the beginning. Phase one marks the first wave of enhancements in our ongoing delivery roadmap - all focused on improving speed, scale, and ease of doing business.
If you’d like a walkthrough of the new tools or want to discuss what’s coming next, your BDM team is ready to help.

Hi, As part of our ongoing commitment to reducing fraud and ensuring a seamless lending process, we’ve made some changes to our requirements at both the loan application and settlement stages. These changes are effective immediately and are aimed at helping to provide a smoother experience for you and your customers while helping us maintain accuracy and integrity throughout the process. Credit Application Stage (all applications)We now require driver licences upfrontThis helps us identify potential issues early, such as single applicants with learner licences or applicants with alcohol interlock licence conditions who won't meet our credit criteria. In these situations, we’ll workwith you and your customers to find alternative solutions where possible. Please attach a copy of the customer’s physical driver licence to the loan application before uploading it to QuickSell. Settlement Stage (new caravan loans only)We now require a DoxAI inspection for all new caravan transactions prior to settlementAll new caravan applications must complete a mandatory DoxAI inspection process before funds are released. This condition applies to all credit approvals for caravans and is designed to help reduce and prevent fraudulent transactions associated with caravan funding. Thanks again for working with us to help reduce fraud and maintain an efficient process. If you have any questions, please contact your BDM. Best regards  Matthew Craig Head of Lending Operations |
