Anti-Money Laundering

Money laundering is the process by which criminals disguise the proceeds of their crimes in order to make them appear legitimate or legally earned. The act of money laundering is often linked to most forms of organised crime and terrorist activity. In an attempt to curb the flow of laundered funds across the globe, international governments and industry bodies have sought to devise and implement effective control mechanisms, including laws and regulations, supervisory regimes and industry guidance. This anti-money laundering (AML) training course has been designed for the APAC financial services sector and is specifically aimed at Compliance Officers and other banking and financial services employees that have specific anti-money laundering or counter-terrorist financing responsibilities.

Summary

Anti-bribery and anti-corruption legislation globally has existed for some time, though enforcement is becoming more aggressive. For example, Singapore’s main anti-bribery legislation, the Prevention of Corruption Act (PCA) originates from 1960 but was amended in 2012 (amongst many past amendments) covering both public and private bribery and targeting both recipients and givers of bribes with renewed enforcement powers.

This increased prosecution appetite by the likes of Department of Justice in the USA and the Serious Fraud Office in the UK has put anti-bribery and anti-corruption in the spotlight at companies that operate internationally.

There is heightened regulatory focus on how insurers obtain and retain business within emerging markets where bribery and corruption is prolific.
