AML Training

The AML/CFT Act states that Senior Managers, the AML/CFT Compliance Officer and any other employee that is engaged in AML/CFT related duties must undertake appropriate training and that this is to be included in your AML/CFT Programme.

Training is important as it provides staff with the necessary skills to assist you in meeting your obligations. As it is a requirement under the AML/CFT Act, AML/CFT Supervisors and Auditors want to see evidence of training. For this reason it is important to keep a training register that records each staff members name, date of training, topic covered, who presented the training and whether the training was subject to a test of understanding and if so, the score. Where possible the training material or product description should be kept as additional evidence.
