Course details

The Criminal Justice (Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing) Acts 2010 and 2013 increased the obligations on a wide range of "designated persons" including trust or company service providers, tax advisers, high value goods dealers, private members' gaming clubs, credit and financial institutions, lawyers, accountants, estate agents, and others in relation to money laundering and terrorist financing. This Course will provide you with an overview of some of the key issues that affect you as an accountant, tax adviser or company service provider. It will also provide you with a rounded view of the legislation insofar as it may apply to some of your clients. While the course is very much driven by the legislative requirements, it will remain practical in nature and focus on actual procedures and considerations that you can implement in your firm. It promises to take the mystery and the ambiguity out of the requirements.

This course is designed for accountants, auditors, tax advisers or company service providers who provide services to the public or to other professional firms. Those with an interest in Anti-Money Laundering requirements or practice clients affected by the legislation are also welcome to attend.
