A practical course for compliance professionals who select, implement, and govern AML technology. Covers AI-powered monitoring, KYC optimisation, false positive reduction, and regulatory alignment across global frameworks.
This course gives compliance professionals a structured, practical grounding in how technology is changing AML operations.
You’ll learn how to build, evaluate, and run technology-driven AML systems that hold up under regulatory scrutiny. That means AI-powered transaction monitoring, optimised KYC workflows, reduced false positives, and compliance programmes that can keep pace with evolving typologies like crypto laundering, shell company networks, and cross-border layering.
The focus is on strategic decisions and implementation governance, not software demos. You’ll leave with frameworks you can use immediately.
