Anti-Money Laundering Update

Norman Denton from Legal Eye will present a 1 hour CPD

Anti-Money Laundering training is a mandatory requirement.  Training must be conducted at least annually, when there are procedural changes, or when you need to draw attention to particular occurrences of money laundering. The UK is also increasingly an attractive investment opportunity for overseas investors. 

So in this session, we will revisit the following areas:

• —Why is Money Laundering a Key Risk?
• What is Money Laundering, how it relates to you - the offences.
• What is a Risk Based Approach?
• Reporting - particularly the procedural changes introduced by the NCA in June 2016
• —Some areas of Good Practice highlighted by the recent SRA AML Report

If you’re not aware that the NCA no longer use the term “consent” in response to a Suspicious Activity Report, then this is one event you really can’t afford to miss!
