“I am the Group Anti-Money Laundering Manager for UBI Banca. My job is to ensure regulatory compliance and the effectiveness of the anti-money laundering operating model.
I decided to pursue the Master's in Anti-Money Laundering with a dual goal. First, I wanted to approach the legislation from a different perspective than could only be gained from working with professionals in the field. Second, I wanted to obtain certification for my knowledge of the subject.
I learned about the Italian Anti-Money Laundering School through research online and by talking to participants from past editions.
I rate the work of the organizational and didactic secretariat as very good, as well as the high quality and competent teachers.
The master's degree gave me the opportunity to interact with those who work in anti-money laundering investigative roles, allowing me to see things from different perspectives. The added value is implementing those perspectives in my daily work.
The skills learned in the Master's program that prove useful in everyday operations are primarily regulatory analysis and interpretation skills, and the application of a risk-based approach to managing operational aspects.
Following my experience, I decided to extend the Master's program to my team, launching a program for colleagues exposed to the daily management of typical anti-money laundering activities, aiming to increase their effectiveness and awareness of their impacts.
Definitely yes, I would recommend the Master to a colleague or a friend.”
