The Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC) is Australia's financial intelligence agency and AML/CTF regulator. Crypto exchanges operating in Australia must register with AUSTRAC as Digital Currency Exchange (DCE) providers and comply with the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act. Registration requires robust KYC, ongoing transaction monitoring, and suspicious matter reporting - making AUSTRAC a meaningful baseline compliance requirement for Australian crypto exchanges.

AUSTRAC is based in Australia and covers the Australia jurisdiction. As a Tier 2 regulator, it provides meaningful oversight, though traders should also verify whether a broker holds an additional Tier 1 licence for added protection.
Visit the official AUSTRAC website and use their public register or licence verification tool. Enter the broker's registered name or licence number to confirm its status. This is the most reliable way to check a broker's regulatory standing.
Compensation availability depends on the specific rules of AUSTRAC in Australia. Tier 1 regulators typically operate investor compensation schemes covering a portion of client funds. Check the regulator's official guidance for current limits and eligibility criteria.
