Governance and Compliance Training

Governance and Compliance Training

Safeguard your business from the danger of Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing, Proliferation Financing: A Governance and Compliance Management Systems Approach.

About The Webinar

Professionals such as lawyers, notaries, accountants, investment advisors, trust and company service providers, as well as other non-financial businesses such as car-dealers and jewelers, are sometimes unknowingly used as a means to facilitate money laundering (ML), terrorism financing (TF) and/or proliferation financing (PF). It is for this reason that professional and business operators in these sectors are considered the ‘gatekeepers’, as they are deemed to play an essential role in identifying, preventing and reporting suspicions of such criminal activities.

In order to successfully protect your business from this risk, and to capitalize on opportunities to be gained from good governance and a systems approach to management, it is imperative that you understand not only your local regulatory requirements associated with AML/CTF/CPF , but also, how to equip your board and staff with the necessary tools and techniques to implement an effective risk-based governance and compliance management system.

This free awareness webinar is targeted at directors, professionals, and relevant employees at all levels, to:

1. Assist them in adopting sound governance and risk-based management practices​​​​​​​ii. Assist them in becoming aware of their roles and responsibilities in detecting and preventing ML/TF/PF

   iii. Help them to gain the required knowledge and skills related to AML/CFT/CPF from an educational, regulatory and ethical perspective, and
