Globalisation and the rapid growth of transaction volumes have contributed to the rise of financial crime. The financial sector, along with professionals such as lawyers and accountants, and national authorities, form a collective defense against the misuse of the financial system for money laundering and terrorist financing.
A strong defense requires comprehensive knowledge of criminal tactics, as well as an understanding of partners, international regulations, standards, and risk-based compliance.
The Need for Knowledge and a Common Language
This complexity highlights the need for experts who can navigate evolving legislation and new technological risks. As such, there is a growing demand for professionals with up-to-date, specialised AML knowledge to identify and manage the risks companies face in relation to money laundering.
At CBS, we offer AML certifications designed to equip managers and specialists to tackle the challenges in the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing.
