About the Seminar: As global regulators continue to tighten the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) requirements, Financial Institutions (“FIs”) are required to maintain robust controls and so do Designated Non-Financial Businesses and Professions (“DNFBP”), such as accountants, lawyers, real estate agents and trust and company service providers. The Financial Action Task Force ("FATF"), an intergovernmental organization, recommends certain AML/CFT requirements that should be carried out by DNFBP since they might also be inappropriately used for money laundering by criminals. What are the upcoming regulatory expectations and proposed changes on AML/CFT? How would the regulatory changes affect accountants? How should accountants prepare to cope with the regulatory expectations? This seminar is aiming to provide you an insight of the expected AML/CFT requirements and share the controls considered to be carried out by DNFBP, and how it will affect the daily operations of the accounting firms.
