Anti-Money Laundering (AML) for Legal Professionals and DNFBPs (AMLL1610H120)

Designated Non-Financial Businesses and Professionals must have in place and implement procedures in order to identity a person (KYC) and also exercise an investigation on whether a client should be accepted or not (CDD). Several parameters may result in the client being classified as having a high or low risk of money laundering. Low risk clients are usually publicly registered companies and public authorities where the ownership is very well known. On the contrary high risk clients could be those coming from high risk countries, they are PEPs, shell corporations, gambling businesses or cash-intensive service based businesses to name a few.
