Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently updated its free tutorial that provides AML t
raining for financial institutions in Thailand.
New York, NY, March 24, 2011 -- Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently updated its f
ree tutorial that provides Anti Money Laundering (AML) training for banks and fi
nancial institutions located in Thailand. Focus on Anti Money Laundering for Tha
iland has been revised as part of Edcomm Banker’s Academy’s ongoing commitment to pr
oviding the most up-to-date and pertinent information to the financial services
industry.
Money laundering in Thailand is a prominent issue because the country is vulnera
ble to cross-border crime. Although some adjustments could be made to strengthen
current legislation, Thailand successfully maintains an AML regime. Thailand’s AM
L policy, the Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA) B.E. 2542 (1999), criminalizes mo
ney laundering for the following predicate offenses: narcotics trafficking, traf
ficking of women or children for sexual purposes, fraud, financial institution f
raud, public corruption, customs evasion, extortion, public fraud, blackmail and
terrorist activity.
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.
