I, Banyong Fonyam Jonie Jr., am a lawyer and expert in Compliance and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Training. I help financial institutions, NGOs, corporate entities, and professional service providers build strong internal compliance cultures by delivering customized AML and regulatory training. My programs are designed to educate employees and management teams on how to detect, prevent, and report suspicious financial activity in line with national laws and international best practices.
Why Is AML Training Important?
Anti-Money Laundering training is a legal requirement in most regulated sectors. It equips employees with the knowledge and tools to recognize red flags, comply with Know Your Customer (KYC) obligations, and avoid unintentionally facilitating money laundering or terrorist financing.
Without effective training, organizations face regulatory sanctions, reputational damage, and operational risks. Regular, targeted AML training is critical to demonstrating a proactive compliance posture to regulators and stakeholders.
