“This agreement, while it still needs to be approved by the Federal Court, brings certainty to one of the most significant issues we have faced.  While not deliberate, we fully appreciate the seriousness of the mistakes we made. Our agreement today is a clear acknowledgement of our failures and is an important step towards moving the bank forward. On behalf of Commonwealth Bank, I apologise to the community for letting them down. ”

 

Background

The settlement with AUSTRAC includes a Statement of Agreed Facts and Admissions. In summary, as part of the agreement CBA has admitted to:
