Anti-money laundering: What you need to know

The UK anti-money laundering regime includes legislation intended to counteract not only criminal money laundering but also terrorist financing.

In this session, Trowers and Hamlins will be providing an overview of the current legislation, and requirements for Housing Associations to consider as part of their activities.

The webinar will cover key matters within the guidance on anti-money laundering (2018) and an overview of the changes introduced as part of the Finance Act 2022, including the anti-money laundering levy.

This session will be of particular interest to members of the Regulation & Governance and Finance Member Communities.
