Course outline:
With the passing into law of the Criminal Justice (Money Laundering & Terrorist Financing) (Amendment) Act 2018, our AML responsibilities have changed.
In the past few years there have been numerous instances of fines being imposed on banks and credit unions for non-compliance with the requirements. Accountancy bodies are now giving AML compliance far greater attention during monitoring visits. Would your firm pass the test? The objective of the course is to make practitioners and staff of professional firms aware of their changed responsibilities under the new legislation.
(ROI) courses are for sale to accountants in the Republic of Ireland.
