The Asian Bankers Association (ABA) is inviting members and friends to the upcoming Fintelekt Certified AML/CFT Professional (FCAP) training programme to be held in person on 9-10 October 2025 at the Hotel Aloft Bangkok Sukhumvit 11 in Bangkok, Thailand.
(1) INTRODUCTION
In today’s complex financial environment, building strong capability in Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Countering the Financing of Terrorism (CFT), and Financial Crime Compliance (FCC) is critical. Well-trained professionals are essential to helping institutions meet regulatory expectations, safeguard reputations, and support national efforts to align with FATF recommendations.
(2) WHAT IS FCAP?
FCAP is a 2-day comprehensive and practical masterclass to learn and stay updated with latest tools, techniques and developments in anti-money laundering (AML) and combating terrorist financing (CFT).
This immersive training will equip you with practical skills and regionally relevant insights to:
- Strengthen your institution’s compliance framework
- Address evolving financial crime risks
- Contribute meaningfully to your country’s AML/CFT commitments
(3) RECOGNITION
Fintelekt’s training initiatives are reviewed and supported by regulators in many countries and are known for their quality and relevance to AML/CFT compliance.
Countries such as Mauritius and the Philippines have demonstrated that investing in AML/CFT capacity can support their exit from the FATF Grey List. The FCAP programme helps build this capability at an institutional and national level.
(4) CERTIFICATION
Participants who attend all sessions and pass the assessments are entitled to receive the Fintelekt Certified AML/CFT Professional (FCAP) certificate.
