“The fight against financial crime is crucial to trust, stability, and reputation throughout the financial system.”
Prof. Dr. Michael Lister, Management-Team zeb.business school
AML seminar
Anti-Money-Laundering
Financial crime poses a threat to both the economy and financial institutions. In Germany, the total losses attributable to financial crime are estimated to range from 250 to 350 billion euros in 2024. With stricter regulatory requirements and the new Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA), the pressure on banks and savings banks to take action continues to mount.
Effective management of financial crime risks not only helps prevent direct losses and fines but also safeguards reputation, regulatory compliance, and competitiveness. This requires equal involvement from the executive board, compliance, fraud management, risk control, IT security, internal audit, and business units.
The seminar examines key risk areas such as money laundering, fraud, and terrorist financing, and highlights specific red flags, processes, and approaches—with the goal of positioning institutions to act effectively and remain future-proof.
