Prevention of Money Laundering(Self-Paced)

Money laundering poses a significant threat to the integrity of financial systems, national security, and the rule of law. In response to this threat, governments around the world have enacted stringent anti-money laundering (AML) laws and regulations, and India is no exception.

Why Study Prevention of Money Laundering in India?

India, as a rapidly developing economy with a growing financial sector, faces unique challenges in combating money laundering and related financial crimes. The Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002 (PMLA) and its subsequent amendments form the cornerstone of India’s AML regime, imposing obligations on financial institutions, designated non-financial businesses and professions (DNFBPs), and individuals to detect, prevent, and report suspicious transactions.

Understanding the intricacies of the PMLA and associated regulations is paramount for professionals operating in various sectors, including banking, finance, legal, real estate, and accounting. Compliance with AML regulations not only mitigates legal and reputational risks but also safeguards the integrity of the financial system and protects the interests of stakeholders.
