Bridge the AML/CFT Knowledge Gap: Compliance Officer/MLRO Training

The global financial landscape is a complex web of opportunities and risks. Financial crime, estimated to cost the world 8% of its GDP annually (FATF, 2023), poses a significant threat to financial institutions (FIs) and Designated Non-Financial Businesses and Professions (DNFBPs). Compliance Officers and Money Laundering Reporting Officers (MLROs) are the cornerstones of effective Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) compliance. Consilium Advisory's Compliance Officer/MLRO Training program empowers these critical personnel with the specialized knowledge and practical skills needed to navigate this ever-evolving environment.

Why Invest in Specialized Training?

The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) – the international standard-setter for AML/CFT – emphasizes the importance of role-specific training in its country evaluations. A 2023 FATF report highlights that well-trained Compliance Officers and MLROs are fundamental to a country's AML/CFT effectiveness. They ensure a comprehensive understanding of AML/CFT risks and the effective implementation of mitigation strategies.

Meeting Regulatory Requirements

Many jurisdictions mandate specialized AML/CFT training for Compliance Officers and MLROs. For instance, the UAE AML Law emphasizes the importance of training personnel performing AML/CFT compliance functions. Similarly, the UK's Money Laundering Regulations 2017 require FIs to appoint a designated MLRO with the necessary knowledge and experience.
