About the course

Both financial crime itself and anti-money laundering (AML) regulation are constantly evolving. Digitalisation means new ways of committing financial crime are being created and regulators are being kept on their toes to protect consumers and safeguard the financial system. The role accountants can play in identifying illegal activity in this area is key.

This course outlines the rules and regulations involved in anti-money laundering compliance. It thoroughly explores the kind of in-depth customer due diligence that accountants and finance professionals should be carrying out to mitigate the risks of money laundering and terrorist financing.

The course dives into the finer details of AML regulation structure and will help you to assess your control framework and ensure that you have all the correct processes and procedures in place.
