Anti-Money Laundering in Malaysia 18 - 19 March 2010

Parkroyal Hotel, Kuala Lumpur

BACKGROUND It is true that things have changed in the world economic order. But Anti-Money Laundering is unlike other economic areas, and it is critical to remember that the mighty United States of America is not a spent force. The United States authorities fear terrorists may copy a novel money laundering scheme devised by Colombian drug traffickers. They were proven right. Clues to the scheme which uses life insurance policies came from the indictment of five Colombians in Miami recently. The same modus operandi has been employed in Malaysia and many other countries since. This is just one of the many ways that drug traffickers laundered their money. The banks and insurance company have once again unwittingly become a willing partner in fraud, money laundering and financing terrorist in their crime against humanity. Although the Basle rules are only applicable to banking, other international standards and national laws on fraud,anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing exist which are also applicable to non-banking financial services. ICFE is the leading and recognized practitioner in Money Laundering Deterrence training and implementation of system in AML compliance. We have a proven history of success in our training for financial institutions from Beijing to Sydney. This is the reason why we propose this training to facilitate financial institutions in Malaysia to implement an overall policy covering all relevant financial areas. Banks, insurance companies, Asset Management companies and many broker-dealer firms may not be aware of the independent testing component of the anti-money laundering compliance program that each of them is required to implement.
