Brief Description

This practically-orientated Programme was developed, in conjunction with SABRIC and a number of the major banking institutions in South Africa, in order to satisfy the need of delegates who have already completed the UP/Enterprises Course in the Detection and Investigation of Money laundering to hone their investigative skills as far as money laundering and terrorist- financing are concerned.

The Programme is primarily developed to assist practitioners in the financial sector to identify certain red flags and to then conduct investigations in order to confirm these suspicions. Upon completion of the Programme the delegates should not only be able to meaningfully convey their findings to management in order for them to make an informed decision as to how to deal with the matter further, but may also assist law enforcement in securing the relevant information and to pro-actively gather information which may subsequently be relied on in civil or criminal proceedings.

The Course content will be presented face -to-face by knowledgeable experts in the field.
Learning Outcomes

After successfully completing the Programme delegates will be able to-

o       Identify the red flags indicative of some of the more common fraudulent or corrupt schemes;

o       Conduct investigations within the organisation, whilst cognisant of the interest of other role-players;

o       Know what information to obtain and how to obtain it is a legally correct manner;

o       Understand the role of others in the process and how parties can work together to achieve a common goal;

o       Write a meaningful report upon which others may confidently act on.
