Course overview

Regulators and law enforcement agencies are increasing the pressure on financial institutions to catch and stop financial crime. Compliance officers act as the primary defence against these illicit activities, but they need practical methods to spot suspicious behaviour and prove they are meeting their regulatory obligations. This is often a difficult balance.

This programme gives risk and compliance professionals the knowledge to apply anti-money laundering (AML) regulations effectively. It moves through the core elements of a compliance framework, from customer due diligence (CDD) and Know Your Customer (KYC) rules right through to full risk assessments.

The sessions cover how to design internal policies, monitor transactions, and conduct investigations when red flags appear. Finally, delegates look at emerging cybersecurity challenges and international AML standards to prepare for future regulatory changes.

By the end of the course, delegates will be able to:

  1. Interpret core AML regulations and how they apply to the compliance officer role
