Anti-Money Laundering

CPD Approved 

Course Description Money-Laundering is a major criminal problem, worldwide. This course starts by defining money laundering and describing the 'regulated sector' as defined by the Proceeds of Crime Act. The course discusses a number of money-laundering offences, including tax evasion, theft, fraud, bribery and the financing of terrorism. You will learn about some of the 'red flags' which could indicate illegal activity, and the connections between money-laundering and certain financial institutions. You will see how the regulated sector combats money-laundering through compliance, due diligence, and record-keeping. Finally, the course examines the internal controls and monitoring used by companies to fight against money-laundering, including policy statements, effective reporting systems, and staff responsibilities. 

Target Audience This course is suitable for anyone working in an organisation that handles large amounts of money. It can also be used as an introduction to the subject for those working or planning to work in a regulated sector.
