All Staff Edition - Understand the Rules and Regulations and Effective Compliance with Policies and Procedures.
This course is aimed at individuals working in the accountancy sector who need to have an awareness of what is required of them to work and operate when it comes to the rules and regulations surrounding anti-money laundering. The course is for all relevant staff who need to know what their obligations are when it comes to AML and how to spot the signs of money laundering and what to do in those circumstances.
Your course tutor is AAT qualified and has a first-class honours degree in Accounting with Marketing and an MSc in Investment Management. Lisa is the NO in her own company which is regulated by the HMRC and she has had direct experience of implementing procedures, and also audit checks on these procedures by different institutions that at different points of her career were the AML supervisory body for the business she was running.
This course includes checklists and templates and where/how to implement AML procedures for compliance.
This course is specifically for the UK market, particularly using examples that are relevant to those within the accountancy sector. However, casinos, money transfer agents, financial services, estate agents, and solicitors - are all industries/professions that need to be aware of AML regulations and to comply (and show compliance if spot-checked), so this course can be of use to those people too.
Please note that Nominated Officers (NO) are encouraged to take the second part of the course. It is a separate course called "AML for the UK Accounting Sector - Nominated Officer Edition" on Learnformula.
