The Association of Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists (ACAMS) announced a strategic training initiative with the Financial and Insurance Institute (Finva), part of Aalto University Executive Education Group.

CAMS® is widely regarded as a global leader in anti-money laundering certifications and recognized internationally by financial institutions, governments and regulators. The first Finva CAMS® preparation training course will be held on November 19, 2018.
“We are delighted to enter into a partnership with the prestigious executive education group of Aalto University, and to include them in ACAMS’ network of international training partners,” said Angela Salter, ACAMS’ head of Europe. “We look forward to working closely with Finva to strengthen professionals’ international anti-money laundering expertise through CAMS® in the Nordic region.”
“AML and financial crimes are global issues, and providing an internationally recognized qualification, alongside local regulatory education, is very important to ACAMS and its members worldwide,” added Salter. “We continue to invest in growing services for ACAMS members throughout Europe.”
“As the leading training provider for the financial industry in Finland, we are delighted to be able to offer training for the globally recognized CAMS® certification,” said Katja Repo, director, Finva, and director, digitalization, Aalto EE. “This strengthens Finva’s compliance training and AML digital training solutions.
