New York, NY, September 16, 2010 -- Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently launched
a free tutorial that provides Anti Money Laundering (AML) training for banks and
financial institutions located in Uganda. Focus on Anti Money Laundering for Ug
anda offers an overview of the AML laws and regulations that are specific to fin
ancial institutions in this East African country.
Money laundering in Uganda is a problem due to the lack of a strong countrywide
AML regime. In late 2009, the Anti-Money Laundering Bill (AMLB) was sent to Ugan
da’s Parliament for consideration. The Bill is the first of its kind for the count
ry, and if it is passed, it will put the strength of Uganda’s AML legislation in l
ine with that of its East African counterparts, such as Kenya, Tanzania and Rwan
da.
Focus on Anti Money Laundering, from Edcomm Banker’s Academy, teaches bank employe
es about AML laws in their country and familiarizes them with their company’s own
policies and procedures. Through this interactive course, students learn everyth
ing they need to know to detect and prevent money laundering. Focus on Anti Mone
y 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 chang
ing 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.
