New York, NY, August 26, 2010 -- Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently launched its Wholesale Banking Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and Anti Money Laundering (AML) training program for individuals looking to begin or advance their career in the financial services industry. The same great program that has already been used by thousands of banks, Focus on BSA/AML for Wholesale Banking provides individuals with the knowledge, skills and certification needed to prevent, detect and report money laundering.

The financial services industry has made significant strides in money laundering detection and prevention. It is imperative that every employee at every financial institution understands and follows the laws, regulations, policies and procedures that guard against terrorist financing and other types of money laundering. When

banks are found non-compliant, they may face significant penalties, including large fines and closure. When bank employees are found non-compliant, they may be banned from the banking industry!

Focus on BSA/AML for Wholesale Banking, from Edcomm Banker’s Academy, is a computer-based, distance learning program that teaches banking compliance for Wholesale Banking using easy-to-understand language in an interactive, self-paced format. Focus on BSA/AML for Wholesale Banking covers: Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), Anti Money Laundering (AML), the red flags of money laundering, USA PATRIOT Act and OFAC, among other topics.
