You’ll likely begin your career in an AML analyst, AML specialist, or AML investigator role, with responsibility for analyzing client and transaction data and reporting suspicious activity. As your career progresses, you may move into more senior compliance roles, such as Chief Compliance Officer, FIU Director, or Money Laundering Reporting Officer.

The AML Foundations Certificate is a great way to refresh your anti-money laundering knowledge and skills. The training course will re-introduce you to the essential principles of an effective AML program. Topics covered include common financial crime typologies, the risk-based approach, and suspicious activity reporting.

The AML training you are required to complete will depend on the AML program of organization you work for and the jurisdiction you work in. You should refer to your jurisdiction’s AML regulations to find out whether AML training is an obligation for employees at your organization. ACAMS’ AML Foundations Certificate is suitable for early career compliance professionals, and non-compliance employees who require AML training.

Anti-money laundering (AML) regulations are in place to prevent the illegal flow of money through the financial system for criminal gain. As part of an effective AML program, organizations must put processes and systems in place to enable them to comply with regulations in the jurisdictions in which they do business. Failure to comply with AML regulation can cause significant legal and reputational risks, and monetary fines.

Penalties for non-compliance with AML regulations vary by jurisdiction and offense. Measures may include financial penalties and, in serious cases, criminal prosecution.

ACAMS offers AML Foundations in Bahasa Indonesian, English, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.

Your AML Foundations Certificate doesn’t have an expiration date.
