Trade based money laundering is a highly effective way to launder the proceeds of crime or finance terrorism. By exploiting the complexities of international trade, criminals can transmit huge amounts of value across borders with little chance of detection.
This course will enable you to compare and contrast the trade-based money laundering typologies such as variable pricing and goods. Gain an understanding of how financial crime risk can manifest and be mitigated in this huge global marketplace.

They are suitable either for those working in the first and second lines of defence looking to certify existing specialist areas of knowledge, or for those looking to increase their professional agility by learning about new areas of risk.
