Counter Terrorist Financing

Terrorism requires funding, and disrupting that funding reduces terrorist activity. This 15-minute express course helps staff identify the channels through which terrorist funding moves, become aware of the measures used to disrupt it, and understand their own duty to combat terrorist financing by spotting and reporting suspicious signs.
Terrorist financing differs from money laundering in an important way: the sums are often small and the funds may be entirely legitimate in origin, which means transaction monitoring calibrated for laundering will miss it. Human judgement about context matters more here than pattern detection. Training staff to notice what does not fit is the control that actually applies.

Market Abuse Regulation Training Course
Market abuse enforcement is personal. Individuals are fined, banned and prosecuted, and firms are judged on whether they created an environment where abuse was possible. Because inside information circulates well beyond the trading floor, restricting this training to the front office leaves the most likely leak points untrained and your surveillance function working harder than it needs to.

Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing
Laundering exploits the seams between jurisdictions, moving value through the entity with the weakest controls in a group. A consistent standard everywhere removes that opportunity. Training all staff, not only the financial crime function, gives your organisation the detection coverage that transaction monitoring alone cannot provide, and meets the training obligation that appears in virtually every AML regime.
Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing E-learning Course
Money laundering offences carry personal criminal liability, and failing to report a suspicion is itself an offence in the UK. Suspicion is usually formed by someone noticing that an explanation does not hold together. Training all staff rather than only the financial crime team gives your firm the detection coverage its systems cannot provide, and supports the training obligation under the Money Laundering Regulations.
Economic Sanctions
Sanctions lists change without notice and often at short political notice, which means knowledge dates faster here than in almost any other compliance area. Liability frequently attaches regardless of intent. A short annual refresher keeps staff alert to the fact that yesterday's acceptable counterparty may not be today's, and reinforces the habit of escalating rather than assuming.
