 INTRODUCTION
As 
per FATAF’s International Guidelines, The Board of Directors of any financial 
institution has a fiduciary duty towards the organization to ensure that there 
is a robust compliance program in place. The Board needs to set “the Tone from 
the Top”, establish an effective control framework and effectively promote a 
“culture of compliance”. A high-risk compliance responsibility entails the flow 
of critical information to risk committees and boards and should be of relevance 
to the overall governance purpose. Senior management in most financial 
institutions have well-established procedures and policies for dealing with 
overall operational risk’s like credit risk or market risk, but the practice of 
dealing with Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) risk is 
yet to mature. The AML/KYC compliance looks into transfer or conversion of 
illicit gotten sources (black money) to legally accessible/taxable (white money) 
funds, primarily using the financial institutions as a conduit for concealment 
and disguise activities to happen.
Technically 
speaking, Board members are not required to be experts at AML knowhow, but, it’s 
highly recommended and comes as industry best practice for BoD’s to acquire an 
understanding of fundamental aspects of AML Risk Control Framework, in order to 
effectively exercise their oversight responsibilities, as mandated by almost all 
the national financial regulatory authorities. Under this understanding of the 
regulatory environment in which the firm operates, the Board of Directors and 
Sr. Management must have a basic working knowledge of applicable regulations, 
including relevant requirements around the globe.
This 
course will give the BoD’s and Sr. Mgmt. an understanding of the said framework 
and will prove to be a means to appreciate the law enforcement mechanisms 
working to maintain such said equilibrium and the resultant consequences of 
non-compliance with these regulations viz. Reputation management, Shareholder’s 
interests, legal ramifications, consequences of adherence failures, etc. This 
training course designed for the Board Members, Heads of sub-committees and the 
Senior Management will equip them to have a clear compliance understanding 
towards transparency and visibility of the enterprise-wide compliance operations 
and adherence duties.
