The programme examines the core elements in the AML Cycle and contemporary (technologically enhanced) best practice in the risk assessment, client onboarding, and life cycle management of client accounts for traditional financial institutions, Fintech’s, and other professional services providers.
Analysing the role of the global watchdog Financial Action Task Force (FATF), and evaluating the challenges facing National Financial Investigation Units (FIU’s) in investigating and enforcing AML/CTF actions, is another central component to the course’s holistic approach to reinforcing/enhancing the effectiveness of Ireland’s existing AML/CFT compliance regime.
