Enhancing Anti-Money Laundering (AML) programmes to address emerging risks and typologies

Facilitators: Julie Nyang'aya, Nasser Adam

Introduction

Financial crime has become a stay-awake issue for corporate directors and C-suite executives at banks and other financial institutions around the world. While it’s difficult to quantify the costs of financial crime — which can include operational, legal and  reputational damage — there is no doubt it has become a significant issue for institutions and one that is more challenging by the day.
Deloitte’s Global AML/Sanctions Practice has assisted many of the world’s leading financial services organizations in developing and implementing all aspects of AML/Sanctions programs.
