Research and Markets: E-Learning Course - Anti-money Laundering Basics

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/x65q2c/elearning_course) has announced the addition of the "E-Learning Course - Anti-money Laundering Basics" training to their offering.

Introduction to money laundering and the challenges and risks involved in combating it.

Money Laundering is an area that is gaining increasing attention.

In the wake of increasing terrorism and organized crime, investigators focus on how such groups finance their activities and are aiming to cut off access to these funds.

Banks and financial institutions are now being asked or forced to significantly increase their efforts to combat Money Laundering, which requires increased training of their staff to better understand, identify, and alert authorities when they see evidence of Money Laundering.

Moreover, regulations are slowly coming into effect in most countries, sometimes with extra territorial jurisdictions which increases the risks of liabilities on organizations both from a financial and a reputation stand point.

With the typically large number of staff working for banks, E-Learning provides the banking industry with a tool to help them not only train their large numbers of employees better, quicker, and more efficiently, but also allows them to do this more cost effectively.
