What You Can Do After This Chapter
Learning objective. Learner explains AML and KYC controls, including customer due diligence, transaction monitoring, and suspicious activity reporting, and identifies red flags in payment patterns. Learner practises this skill on realistic banking cases, explaining the reasoning clearly and using correct terminology throughout the work.
Practical assessment. Learner reviews six months of account activity for a small business, including round-amount transfers of 9,500 dollars, rapid in-and-out flows, and payments to high-risk countries, and flags four red flags with the evidence for each.
