Training
A BSA/AML program is only as strong as its implementation - equip your team with the tools and knowledge they need to effectively identify and prevent financial crime through comprehensive training.
About the service
Background and requirements
Designing a comprehensive BSA/AML program is a crucial first step in preventing financial crime. However, simply having the best policies, procedures, and controls in place is not enough. In order for these measures to be effective, they must be appropriately executed by your staff. Therefore, you are required to provide training for all appropriate personnel in your organization to ensure they are equipped to comply with the BSA/AML regulations. This is where training becomes critical. By providing your staff with the necessary tools and knowledge to identify and prevent financial crime, including a detailed overview of the potential ML/TF risks your organization faces, you can ensure that they are equipped to meet regulatory goals and effectively implement the BSA/AML program.
Our services
We offer both online and in-person training tailored to meet the specific needs and requirements of your organization. We understand that every organization has unique compliance requirements and risk profiles, and the training is designed to address those specific needs. The training session(s) covers the relevant aspects of the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations, including regulatory requirements, supervisory guidance, and your internal policies, procedures, and processes. We make sure that the developed training program includes an extensive overview of the specific money laundering and illicit financial activity risks that your organization may face.
What’s included?
We offer an online or in-person BSA/AML training program tailored to the specific needs of the target audience within your organization. This means that we design the training program to address the specific roles and responsibilities of the different personnel groups. For example, we can conduct training for the board and senior management that focuses on their responsibilities for oversight and governance, or on the other hand, provide more detailed and operational training for the first, second or third line of defense. This targeted approach ensures that everyone within your organization receives the training that is most relevant to their role and responsibilities.
All sessions will include:
- training presentation;
- training materials and/or booklet;
- examination (short online test);
- attendance records.
