Course Description
Did you know that 2-5 % of the global GDP is related to money laundering? In 2019, global GDP was at 145$ trillion — 5 % of it is over 7$ trillion; that's roughly the size of Japan's economy. Similarly, terror organizations have long threatened our lives. It is estimated that terrorists kill an average of 21,000 people worldwide each year.
Money laundering and terrorist financing are global challenges, and the prevention of these crimes is a core area for many regulators and organizations worldwide. In this Certificate Program, you will acquire relevant foundational knowledge about money laundering and anti-money laundering (AML) as well as terrorist financing and counter-terrorist financing (CTF). In addition, you will learn practical concepts to implement AML/CTF measures, including policies/procedures and suspicious activity reports (SAR).
This Certificate Program also covers foundational knowledge of customer due diligence (CDD) and Know Your Customer (KYC). Understanding CDD/KYC in the context of AML/CTF is crucial for organizations and professionals working in compliance and anti-financial crime.
