Cod. 02 KYC Course Due Diligence and Beneficial Ownership
About This Course
Introduction
In this course, you will learn the key obligations of Anti-Money Laundering (AML) legislation. The focus is on customer due diligence, which requires intermediaries and professionals to identify the customer and, above all, their Beneficial Owner, i.e. the natural person who holds final control over them..
You learn to apply a risk-based approach, modulating the intensity of the checks (simplified, ordinary or strengthened) based on the customer profile. The goal is to constantly monitor the relationships and report suspicious transactions to prevent the illicit use of the financial system.
Structure
The course is structured into a half-day classroom session lasting three hours. The teaching of the course includes an important pragmatic activity with the practical analysis of real cases, proposed by the students themselves, and subject to analysis and plenary discussion or exercise guided by the teacher. Each half day of training releases 2 training credits necessary for the renewal of certifications issued by the school (AMLACERT, KYCACERT, RCACERT, WSACERT) and CAMS certification.
