Anti-money Laundering

Write your awesome label here.



How you will learn:

Due to international geopolitical developments, constant risk evaluation by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) as well as South Africa’s working to exit from the current grey listing, AML, Combating the Financing of Terrorism (CFT), and Proliferation Financing (PF) is a fluid subject.

Although the Financial Intelligence Centre Act 38 of 2001 (FICA) is well known in South Africa, the practical application thereof and what it means for a Compliance and Risk practitioner requires at least an introductory overview into this daunting and sometimes complex topic. These latest developments are covered in this AML Short Course.
