[Webinar] Regulatory Developments in Anti-Money Laundering: Implications for Wealth Management Businesses

Overview

Financial institutions face significant risks from financial crime, which is becoming more sophisticated with the use of new and emerging technologies to exploit financial systems. To mitigate these risks, financial institutions must adapt and innovate their anti-money laundering systems and tools to effectively target and mitigate priority threats, while also supporting new sectors and business growth.

In this joint HKSI Institute / PWMA Seminar, Ms. Carmen CHU, Executive Director (Enforcement and AML) of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, will share key insights relating to wealth management on the latest regulatory developments in the AML space and lessons learnt from enforcement actions. The sharing and adoption of best practices are critical in driving more effective and efficient outcomes in AML work.
