Understanding AML Compliance:

Anti-money laundering compliance involves a set of regulations and procedures designed to prevent and detect activities that may facilitate money laundering or terrorist financing. For accountants, who often handle financial transactions and sensitive client information, staying compliant is not just a legal obligation but also a critical step in maintaining the financial system’s integrity.

The Role of Accountants in AML:
