Location: Pomme d'Or Hotel, Jersey
Pricing: Jersey Finance Members Only
In partnership with Themis, we’re delighted to be hosting a US-focussed financial crime risk assessment roundtable – a CPD accredited event – for finance firms in Jersey with Jersey Finance membership.
Understanding financial crime risk is a cornerstone of the fight against money laundering and the financing of terrorism and proliferation. To help industry’s risk understanding, Jersey Finance has engaged Themis, a financial crime specialist, to jointly host a roundtable discussion event with experts focussed on the USA.
The roundtable event will provide an opportunity to hear from an expert panel of practitioners, to ask questions about key financial crime threats to the USA and to explore the implications for finance firms with Jersey operations, or firms with clients and partners based in the region.
This event is highly recommended for representatives from compliance functions, in addition to other business areas, and we welcome multiple attendees from finance firms in Jersey.
If you have any questions regarding this CPD-accredited event, please contact our events team.
