ACAMS Virtual Caribbean 2021 | ACAMS | 7 December 2021 | Virtual

It has been a year of unprecedented crises for Caribbean AML professionals, from Covid-19 to correspondent banking, fraud and FinTech oversight. 2022 looks to be equally demanding, with game-changing challenges such as navigating the uncharted waters of new regulations and conducting due diligence in a world increasingly driven by digital identities and virtual assets.
