Corporate fraud specialist solicitor Martin Cunningham is offering businesses tailor made training seminars about the implications of recent changes to the Prevention of Corruption Act.
His seminars will cover compliance with the Money Laundering Regulations 2003, which require professional and business people to disclose knowledge or suspicion of any kind of illegal transaction.
Cunningham will also cover other requirements of the new legislation, including the need for companies to appoint an in-house Money Laundering Officer; the need to have staff training procedures in place; and the severe penalties that will result from failure to comply with any aspect of the
regulations.
This is stuff that managers really need to know about, says Cunningham.
This new law is now a fact of business life. The police and various regulatory authorities are reportedly trying to drive their point home by hunting for íscapegoatí test cases from industries with a poor record on corporate propriety. If you happen to be one of the ígoatsí, youíll be in deep trouble.
More details about the training seminars are available by contacting Martin Cunningham on 0161 456 5857.
