WORKSHOP A:
Conducting Effective AML Investigations: Law Enforcement Methodologies and Private Sector Techniques
One of the most important aspects of AML compliance—and addressing the full extent of financial crimes—is the ability to conduct comprehensive and focused investigations. A sound and successful investigative process should be multi-faceted. A proficient investigative programme impacts the financial institution’s bottom line in terms of loss prevention, cost savings and asset recovery. This interactive workshop will put proper investigative planning into perspective alongside plan execution. You will learn the importance of the investigative process and how to bring the investigative steps together in a cohesive manner. Plus, hear expert presenters discuss critical factors to consider during the execution phase of an investigation.

WORKSHOP B:
How to Best Audit the AML Compliance Operation to Meet the Needs of Your Institution and Satisfy Regulators
A comprehensive audit is essential to effectively monitor your institution’s AML controls and determine how well it is prepared to meet regulatory expectations. While a successful AML programme strikes a delicate balance between meeting examiners’ requirements and addressing specific risks, the best way to measure its success is through an audit. In this workshop, expert presenters tackle the issue with a double-layered approach that includes auditing design effectiveness and monitoring operational deficiencies. Attend this interactive session to discover an innovative and advanced approach that will help you improve and fortify your AML/CTF operations.
