Course overview
Your employees know how important honesty is in banking and business. Wherever money changes hands, power and influence follow. So, problems like money laundering aren’t just bad for their company, they can point to a trail of corruption, and the funding of organised crime. Since they work in finance, they need to know what the law says about combatting fraud.
The Fraud Act 2006 sets out definitions and examples of fraud. Irregularities and suspicious behaviours can be spotted internally as well as externally. It takes vigilance and proactive steps to succeed in fraud prevention. Your employees will need a framework that covers the range of risks and encourages a culture of compliance.
