The course will explore the significant advances in Money Laundering legislation within the European Union, addressing the changing legislative environment and recent developments. In this context the course will refer to Money laundering typologies which show the various methods, techniques, schemes and instruments criminals use to conceal, launder or move illicit funds.
Recognising money laundering and terrorist financing typologies is an essential skill for any compliance officer to be effective in their fight against financial crime and to ensure regulatory compliance for their financial service organisation as a regulated entity.
