MANILA, Philippines — The Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) has accredited a securities and investment professional body to conduct an e-learning and training program for banking and finance professionals, as well as capital markets in the Philippines. The CISI said that the program will give an overview of the current AMLC/CFT legislation and regulation. The modules for the program, CISI added, are specifically tailored for bank workers, money-service businesses/pawnshops, as well as those regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. “We are excited to offer an affordable, accessible, readily-available, online solution that will help to increase the effectiveness of all staff to fight money laundering and terrorism financing,” CISI Asia Pacific regional head Andrella Guzman-Sandejas, said in the same statement.
