Frauds, Forgeries and AML Training

Frauds, forgeries, and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) refer to the prevention and detection of financial crimes such as fraud and forgeries, as well as the illegal activity of money laundering.

Frauds refer to any illegal or deceptive activity that results in financial gain for the perpetrator. Examples include check fraud, credit card fraud, and identity theft. Forgeries refer to the crime of falsely making or altering a document or signature with the intent to deceive.

Anti-Money Laundering (AML) refers to the set of laws, regulations, and procedures that financial institutions and other regulated entities must follow in order to prevent, detect, and report money laundering activities. Money laundering is the process of making illegally-gained proceeds (i.e. "dirty money") appear legal (i.e. "clean").

Financial institutions and other regulated entities have a legal obligation to implement AML programs, which typically include customer due diligence, risk assessment, and suspicious activity reporting. AML regulations are in place to prevent money launderers from using the financial system to legitimize the proceeds of their criminal activities.

“Money laundering is the lifeblood of organized crime and, as such, is a direct threat to the integrity of financial systems and the stability of governments.” - Robert S. Mueller III, former Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
