Those documents were subsequently requested in approximately January 2010 and provided on 1 February 2010. At the meeting on 26 May 2009, Dr Rankin also raised with the AFP the prospect of Securency obtaining an independent review of Securency’s agent policies and procedures by KPMG.
At the request of the AFP, Securency did not immediately retain KPMG, so as not to hinder the AFP’s initial access to documents. In early June 2009, the Reserve Bank Board was provided with an update on Securency’s referral to the AFP for investigation.
