This seminar offers you a concise and comprehensive update on all key topics relating to money laundering prevention.

Our speaker, Holger Pauco-Dirscherl, an experienced senior financial crime professional with almost 20 years of expertise in anti-money laundering (AML), provides a clearly structured overview of current developments, regulatory requirements, supervisory audit priorities and practical implementation tips.

The main topics include:

  • Current status of risk analysis: regulatory expectations, typical weaknesses and derivation of effective control measures.
  • Suspicious activity reports in practice: reporting triggers, distinctions, interpretation aids and typical sources of error.
  • Sanctions law & circumvention: regulatory requirements, EU regime, beneficial owners and impact on business relationships
  • Fraud & fraud interfaces: current patterns and links to reporting obligations.
  • Terrorist financing: current threat situations, indicators and low-value constellations.
  • KYC and internal security measures: risk-oriented due diligence obligations, processes, roles, training concepts and proof of effectiveness.
  • Regulatory developments and AMLA perspective: audit focus, findings and European structures

You will benefit from learning about AML expertise from the perspective of an expert with almost 20 years of AML practice.

The seminar is compact and practice-oriented. In just 3.5 hours, you will gain a condensed overview of the current regulatory expectations, including the audit focus.

Instead of dry theory, you will take away specific implementation tips that you can use immediately for your operational AML tasks.
