International Experience in Detecting and Countering Financial Offenses: The Role of Internal Audit and Financial Monitoring

Training Objective
Develop participants’ integrated competence in designing, implementing, and auditing end-to-end systems for countering financial offenses—from Internal Audit and Fraud Risk Management to AML/sanctions and Financial Monitoring—grounded in international standards (IIA/COSO, ISO 37001, FATF), modern analytics/RegTech (ML, graph analytics, NLP), and sound data governance (data lineage, access, privacy).

Brief Training Description
The program is built around eight interrelated modules and combines a comparative international review with applied tools and hands-on deliverables:

  • Fraud Hunters Around the World 
  • Internal Audit: Essence, Types, Tools & Effectiveness
  • Fraud Risk Management: Essence, Tools & Effectiveness
  • Anti‑Money Laundering (AML): Program, Analytics & Effectiveness
  • Anti-Bribery Management
  • Financial Monitoring (FM): Operating Model, Data Governance & Oversight
  • ICT & AI for Detecting and Countering Financial Offences
  • International Professional Associations

Outcomes
By the end, participants will be able to: compare international approaches; create an IA Charter and annual plan; build an FRM control matrix; launch an RBA-based AML program with TM/screening; implement an ABMS; design an FM operating model with dashboards; apply ML/NLP/graph analytics with MRM/XAI; and plan professional certification. Throughout the training, they will compile a portfolio of artifacts—policies, SOPs, risk/model registers, rulebooks, a SAR playbook, and KPI/KRI dashboards—ready for organizational use.
