The Fifth Anti-Money Laundering - What Now?

The Fifth Anti-Money Laundering - What Now?

Wednesday 15 January, 12:00pm

Will the UK still be implementing the Fifth Directive?

The Fifth Directive must be transposed into national law across the European Union by 10 January 2020. While the main changes were agreed in 2018, the United Kingdom is yet to publish draft legislation implementing the Fifth Directive. With the UK set to leave the EU on 31 January, there are many question marks over the transposition of incoming EU legislation such as the Fifth Directive.

In this webinar, Director of Best Practice Gary Yantin and Director of Course Development Nick Henderson will give up-to-date guidance on the application of the Fifth Directive and general anti-money laundering compliance.

The webinar will cover:

• Will the UK be updating its money laundering regulations?
• What are the key changes under the Fifth Directive?
• Answering questions from registrants

Preparing AML Training Plans for the Fifth Directive

In advance of the Fifth Money Laundering Directive coming into force, VinciWorks will update all of its anti-money laundering courses to accurately reflect the latest regulations.

In addition, VinciWorks will be releasing a written guide to the changes (in PDF form) and a PowerPoint presentation with speaker's notes that can be circulated internally or used as a quick, 10-minute classroom session to explain and discuss the new Directive.

Due to the minor impact of the changes for most organisations, VinciWorks does not recommend that companies or law firms who regularly train on AML (every 12-18 months) make any significant changes to their training schedule in response to the new Directive.
