    Protect Your Institution and Contribute to Countering the Financing of Terrorism

    Methods of terrorism financing are in constant flux, and with advancing technology increasing anonymity, terrorist groups can exploit weaknesses in anti-money laundering (AML) and CFT protocols. Red flags and typologies must be re-evaluated regularly to address emerging threats, including domestic violent extremism (DVE), "lone wolf" terrorism, and new ways of raising funds.

     

    The updated certificate equips professionals with comprehensive CFT knowledge to analyze and detect suspicious activity and onboard and perform due diligence. It offers up-to-date insights on red flags, typologies, and risk management, incorporating global and regional perspectives with practical case examples.
