Edcomm Banker’s Academy Launches Anti Money Laundering (AML) Training for Croatia

Feb. 16, 2011 - PRLog -- New York, NY  -- Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently launched a free tutorial that provides Anti Money Laundering (AML) training for banks and financial institutions located in Croatia. Focus on Anti Money Laundering for Croatia offers an overview of the AML laws and regulations that are specific to financial institutions in this Southeastern European country.

In 1997, Croatian authorities enacted the Act on Prevention of Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism (the AML Law) as a basis for establishing the country's Anti-Money laundering/Counter Terrorist Financing (AML/CTF) system. In 2004, the AML Law was amended by the Act on Amendments to the Prevention of Money Laundering in order to upgrade Croatia’s AML/CFT legislation with European Union (EU) Legislation. The AML Law was amended again in 2008 by the Croatian Ministry of Finance, which houses the Anti-Money Laundering Office (AMLO), Croatia’s Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU).

Focus on Anti Money Laundering, from Edcomm Banker’s Academy, teaches bank employees about AML laws in their country and familiarizes them with their company’s own policies and procedures. Through this interactive course, students learn everything they need to know to detect and prevent money laundering. Focus on Anti Money Laundering can be customized to meet the needs of every Bank, Credit Union or Money Services Business (MSB). Each course is regularly updated to include changing laws and policies. Recognizing that money laundering can occur anywhere and everywhere, Edcomm Banker’s Academy is prepared to create a course for any country in need.
