AML/Financial Crime/Financial Sanctions has never been as topical and important as it is right now. From real financial crimes (money laundering, terrorist financing, bribery & corruption, fraud) and organised crimes (cybercrime, drug trafficking, sex trafficking) occurring domestically and globally on a weekly basis, strict legal requirements including introduction of new EU AML Regulator as well as a new European AML Rule Book, regular enforcement action globally and finally of course the atrocities that we are seeing playing out every day in Ukraine resulting in major Russian Financial Sanctions - it is all having an incredibly challenging impact on how Financial Institutions manage these risks within their respective business both domestically here in Ireland and on a global basis.
Compliance Institute members are invited to attend our “Financial Crime Compliance: Breakfast Briefing” seminar in conjunction with and hosted by Grant Thornton on Thursday, May 19th. You will hear from leading Heads of AML/Compliance from across the Irish Financial Services industry as they discuss these challenges and threats.
