The new financial security environment has fundamentally changed. Sanctions regimes and anti-money laundering (AML) systems, once seen as separate, have begun to merge and together define the field of counter-illicit finance and financial crime risk management.

Well-trained and well-rounded financial integrity professionals who understand this new landscape will be best equipped to help institutions manage real and regulatory risks that in recent years have expanded in scope, complexity, and importance including across money laundering, terrorist financing, proliferation financing, corruption, fraud, and the evasion of sanctions and strategic trade controls.
