What is the AML certification exam for ICPAC and CBA Professionals?

The Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Cyprus (ICPAC) and the Cyprus Bar Association (CBA) are the regulated bodies of Trust and Corporate Service Providers (TCSP) and in order to enhance the expertise and competencies of professionals dealing with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) matters, they have introduced the requirement to obtain an AML certification.

The primary objective of the AML examination is to assess candidates' proficiency in performing the responsibilities of an AML Compliance Officer (AMLCO) with utmost competence. Therefore, the exam targets professionals who currently serve as an AMLCO or have recently been appointed for the role in firms regulated by ICPAC or the CBA. The AML exam is also open to individuals aspiring to become an AMLCO within ICPAC or CBA firms. Moreover, the certification is available to any professional interested in gaining a standardized level of knowledge on AML regulations, irrespective of their experience and current position.

By obtaining the AML certification, compliance professionals in Cyprus can enhance their career prospects, certify their expertise, and demonstrate their commitment to upholding robust AML practices.
