Enhanced Financial Crime Training

The Board of Directors found it refreshing to receive training from someone with such relevant and recent experience in industry and who understood the commerciality of our business. The AML/CFT training was pitched at exactly the right level for the Board, was interactive and kept the interest of all attendees throughout the session.

Training for Guernsey NED’s

As a NED I support executives to provide good governance, manage risks and enable investment strategy, whilst protecting investor interests. This role is becoming increasingly challenging with the ever-demanding regulatory and legal environment (not to mention global macro events). Keeping abreast of changes in the world of director duties and compliance is The sessions were excellent. Cathy and Mel tailored the sessions for me and my portfolio, provided relevant case studies and facilitated my many questions. They also provided a personalised set of (many) slides which saved me taking notes, enabling me to focus on the learning and have a reference point in future. We are lucky in Guernsey to have many opportunities for CPD, however, it would be difficult to beat the personalised approach from two excellent professionals.

Training for Regulated Firms

Dawn delivered two AML training sessions yesterday for our staff, the second one being enhanced training. I wanted to let you know that the feedback from both sessions was really positive, with all staff finding it interesting, informative, engaging and very relevant to the activities and risks of the Firm. Dawn’s in-depth knowledge and experience, from both an industry and a regulatory perspective, really enhanced the content being delivered. My personal thanks to Dawn for a job very well done.
