Are you confident your team can spot and prevent money laundering?

Money laundering and terrorist financing rarely come with flashing warning lights. They hide in everyday decisions, from client onboarding to unusual transactions to overseas payments.

It’s not unusual for this sort of thing to go unnoticed until it’s too late, especially if your firm’s team aren’t appropriately trained to identify it.

So, here’s the real question – Can your people spot the signs, ask the right questions, and take the right action?

At The Professional Alternative (TPA), we work with firms that want more than a tick-box approach to anti-money laundering (AML).

They want to actively prevent financial crime, and they know that starts with confident, well-trained teams.

AML training that helps you prevent, not just react

Our Anti-Money Laundering (AML) courses are built to do more than satisfy basic compliance requirements.

It’s designed to help your team understand the risks and act early before issues escalate.

Here’s what that looks like:

1. Understanding what you’re up against

• What money laundering and terrorist financing actually look like in practice
• The latest UK legislation and how it applies to your firm
• Key roles and responsibilities, so no one’s left unsure of their next steps when a red flag appears

2. Empowering teams to ask the right questions

• How to conduct meaningful due diligence
• Managing higher-risk clients like Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) and understanding when to escalate or reassess the relationship
• Navigating financial sanctions and grey areas with confidence

3. Spotting risks before they become problems

• Real-world indicators of suspicious activity
• The difference between a gut feeling and a reportable concern
• Knowing when and how to file a SAR

From foundational knowledge to quick refreshers, our AML courses are designed to meet your team where they are.

AML training that is right for your firm

Whether you’re a small team with big ambitions or a larger firm managing complex risk, our training can flex to your needs.

We’ll help you meet your obligations, protect your business, and keep your people engaged along the way.
