The last nine months have seen some significant updates in relation to Anti Money Laundering such as the SRA Sectoral Risk Assessment in July 2023, the SRA AML Thematic Review report and subsequent Warning Notice in October, and most recently the further SRA Sectoral Risk Assessment in March 2024.
To support the shift in attitude to taking enforcement action against non compliance, we have seen a subsequent flurry of well-publicised fines levied to SRA regulated practices and individuals found to be in breach of the Money Laundering Regulations.
This short session delivered by Tracy Thompson will provide delegates with practical guidance and will highlight the important AML updates since July 2023, with the aim of equipping practices with the requisite knowledge to prevent them falling foul of the Money Laundering Regulations or SRA enforcement action.
