Edcomm Banker’s Academy Updates Free Anti Money Laundering (AML) Overview for Canada

Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently updated its free tutorial that provides AML training for financial institutions in Canada.

New York, NY, April 19, 2010 -- Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently updated its free tutorial that provides Anti Money Laundering (AML) training for banks and financial institutions located in Canada. Focus on Anti Money Laundering for Canada has been revised as part of Edcomm Banker’s Academy ongoing commitment to providing the most up-to-date and pertinent information to the financial services industry.

The key enhancement to Canada’s regulatory legislation, Bill C-25, has further expanded the reach of the law to new reporting entities, fine-tuned many of the recordkeeping and customer identification practices, and added a major level of customer due diligence through the introduction of risk assessment requirements and the need to monitor for politically exposed foreign persons. All of this has been implemented at the same time as the release of the Financial Action Task Force’s (FATF) latest evaluation of Canada’s Regime and significant changes in the senior management team at Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC).

Focus on Anti Money Laundering, from Edcomm Banker’s Academy, teaches bank employees about AML laws in their country and familiarizes them with their company’s own policies and procedures. Through this interactive course, students learn everything they need to know to detect and prevent money laundering. Focus on Anti Money Laundering can be customized to meet the needs of every Bank, Credit Union or Money Services Business (MSB). Each course is regularly updated to include changing laws and policies. Recognizing that money laundering can occur anywhere and everywhere, Edcomm Banker’s Academy is prepared to create a course for any country in need.
