New York, NY, April 04, 2011 -- Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently updated its free tutorial that provides Anti Money Laundering (AML) training for banks and financial institutions located in India. Focus on Anti Money Laundering for India has been revised as part of Edcomm Banker’s Academy’s ongoing commitment to providing the most up-to-date and pertinent information to the financial services industry.

On November 27, 2002, India’s lower house of Parliament passed the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), which had first been introduced in 1998. The bill was amended in August 2002 by the upper house to include terrorist financing provisions. India’s President signed the law in January 2003. This legislation criminalizes money laundering, establishes fines and sentences for money laundering offenses, imposes reporting and recordkeeping requirements on financial institutions, provides for the seizure and confiscation of criminal proceeds, and provides for the creation of a Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU).

Focus on Anti Money Laundering, from Edcomm Banker’s Academy, teaches bank employees about AML laws in their country and familiarizes them with their company’s own policies and procedures. Through this interactive course, students learn everything they need to know to detect and prevent money laundering. Focus on Anti Money Laundering can be customized to meet the needs of every Bank, Credit Union or Money Services Business (MSB). Each course is regularly updated to include changing laws and policies. Recognizing that money laundering can occur anywhere and everywhere, Edcomm Banker’s Academy is prepared to create a course for any country in need.
