Certification Programme - Anti Money Laundering & Counter-Terrorist Financing (AML & CTF) - Foundation Level
In developing an international financial centre, Luxembourg became aware at a very early stage of the need to prevent the use of financial circuits for unlawful purposes. While initially designed to fight money laundering linked to drug trafficking, Luxembourg legislation today criminalises all offences recommended by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).
Moreover, measures aiming to prevent money laundering not only apply to banks, but to all professionals in the financial sector, such as insurance companies, notaries, estate agents, auditors, casinos, lawyers, tax and financial advisers, and persons selling high-value goods.
This interactive 3-day seminar combining lectures, case studies and exchanges of views and experience is offered as a solid foundation.
