MLROs in legal firms
Each person attending will be able to:
- Understand the high profile nature of the MLRO role and the approach of their firm’s AML regulator to their supervisory responsibilities; recognise the contributions to the UK’s AML/CTF regime from the FATF and the EU.
- Appreciate the importance of the professional guidance and, particularly, of the approved status carried by the guidance.
- Assist in the creation of a firm’s ML risk assessment and the development therefrom of the firm’s risk based CDD arrangements and other systems, procedures and controls for AML/CTF.
- Oversee the firm’s day-to-day management of its AML/CTF regime, including its monitoring arrangements and with particular reference to enhanced CDD and monitoring obligations.
- Manage a firm’s Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) regime.
