Aims and Objectives:
Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Economic Sanctions are more complex than ever, and constant changes present unique and difficult challenges for Regulated Entities. A significant number of high-profile enforcement cases have shown that AML and Economic Sanctions compliance has been and will continue to be a top priority for Regulatory Authorities and Law Enforcement Agencies in Cyprus, the European Union and Globally. Regulated Entities now face the very real possibility of large fines and criminal prosecution for any breaches. In the current environment, AML and Economic Sanctions compliance is critical and must be a focus of the boards of directors, senior management, compliance officers and all staff of Regulated Entities and Authorities.
By the end of the seminar, participants will be able to have a thorough understanding of the current AML and Economic Sanctions critical considerations, the requirements, the challenges ahead and the new compliance landscape and more importantly to offer practical solutions for an efficient and effective implementation of AML and Economic Sanctions procedures and controls.
The seminar will cover the following Legislation:
1. CY Law - The Prevention and Suppression of Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Law of 2007 L188(I)/2007 as Amended in 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2019 and 2021 by Laws 58(I)/2010, 80(I)/2012, 192(I)/2012, 101(I)/2013, 184(I)/2014, 18(I)/2016, 13(I)/2018, 158(I)/2018, 81(I)/2019, 13(I)/2021, 22(I)/2021 and 40(I)/2022.
2. CY Law - The Implementation of the Provisions of the Resolutions or Decisions of the United Nations Security Council (Sanctions) and the Decisions and Regulations of the Council of the European Union (Restrictive Measures) Law of 2016 L58(I)/2016.
3. CY Law - The Combating of Terrorism Law of 2019 L75(I)/2019.
4. EU - Decisions and Regulations of the Council of the European Union (Restrictive Measures).
5. UN - Sanctions adopted by the relevant Security Council Resolution pursuant to Article 41 of Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations, which provides for the Implementation of the Provisions of the Resolutions or Decisions of the United Nations Security Council (Sanctions).
