The National Crime Agency has the starring role at the first Rightmove Anti-Money Laundering webinar of the year, to be held next week.
Called Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) – the process, minimising delays and avoiding penalties, the event will be led by FCS Compliance.
Free to Rightmove members, this hour-long session will take place at 10am on Thursday January 26.
It will be presented by Malcolm Driscoll, lead AML consultant at FCS, with Michael Jones from the UK Financial Intelligence Unit at the National Crime Agency.
Jones has first-hand experience of dealing with Suspicious Activity Reports and will discuss what happens when one arrives at the NCA.
Driscoll comments: “The number of SARs being filed with the NCA is on the up.
“Between 2019-20 some 570,000 SARs were filed, while in 2022 it looks as though numbers will top 850,000.
“Understanding when to file a SAR and the process itself is important. The consequences of getting it wrong can be costly.”
Free to Rightmove members, registration for the webinar is through the Rightmove Hub here.
