ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING
AN INDUSTRY PERSPECTIVE
Money Laundering is a constant and yet, evolving risk that impacts governments, organisations and individuals alike. Facilitated, either knowingly or unknowingly by financial institutions, money launderers are finding new ways to exploit the banking industry and circumvent laws and regulations. The growing threat of terrorism compounds the threat money laundering presents and underscores the need for financial institutions to have in place robust, scalable control frameworks to mitigate money laundering risks. Tackling the complex international patchwork of regulatory and legal requirements, while continuing to serve clients locally, is challenging. The financial services sector faces significant reputational damage and potentially large fines if adequate controls do not exist. Around the world, regulators are taking an increasingly aggressive stance on failures in this area.
COME AND JOIN US to enhance your aptitude and expertise in anti-money laundering (AML) detection, prevention and enforcement to strengthen your team and protect your organisation. 28TH & 29TH JULY, 2016 BANGALORE
