Event Summary
Devising and implementing effective anti-money laundering (AML) compliance programs have always been tricky and challenging. With the rising number of AML violations and the stiffer penalties from recent enforcement actions, businesses and organizations are urged to better revisit and re-assess their existing initiatives and ensure that these are compliant with the current enforcement priorities.
One of the keys to strengthening a company’s AML compliance is to have a wider vision of its risk areas. Employing risk assessment solutions so that financial crimes are diligently mitigated can be of great help. However, choosing the correct software can be burdensome.
Listen as financial crime risks assessment expert Rosie Davitt (Arctic Intelligence) and guest(s) provide an overview on anti-money laundering (AML) regulations and landscape, the latest developments, and the most pressing issues for compliance and risk teams. She will also offer helpful tips in choosing the best risk assessment software to boost one’s AML compliance programs.
In this LIVE Webcast, the speaker will discuss:
• The AML Landscape: Trends and Developments
• AML Enforcement Priorities
• Challenges in the risk assessment process
• AML Risk Assessment Software
