Money laundering – webinar outline
What is money laundering? POCA, 3 stages of money laundering, links with terrorist financing and sanctions evasion etc
Why does it matter to charities? Risks – criminal, regulatory, reputation, operational
Objectives of charities with respect to money laundering – identify, intercept and report illicit activity; deter launderers so they choose easier targets; be able to demonstrate due care
How institutions avoid or identify money laundering – define risk appetite, choose the right donors and recipients, transaction monitoring, prioritise scrutiny efforts (typologies), success stories
Charity-specific risk issues – lack of commercial rationale, operations in poor/corrupt countries, close links with governments, lack of patterns, dedicated donations
