THE 'C' LETTER
December Edition 2020
 
Letter from the Editor

Season's Greetings to all our Community Members!

Wow and in a flash there goes 2020!!! And as we come towards the end of the year the key question is, what will be the new normal? 

No matter what the outcome, there is one overarching takeaway from 2020 - this year has been about supporting each other, reminding us of the important things in life – family, health, and being there for one another. It's the simple things in life which bring us happiness, and nothing feels better than when we work to achieve our goals together.

As we at RAW Compliance move toward our 2021 goal setting we want to say thank you. Thank you for your incredible support over these past few months as we got off the ground, thank you for believing in us and our mission, and thank you for sharing our passion. Knowing you are together with us on this journey has been our daily inspiration and motivation.

We are really excited about what we can achieve together in 2021, and for years to come.

Stay safe and wishing you a very happy new year!

The Money Laundering Red Flag Series: Modern Day Slavery - Understanding Typologies

At times when we discuss Financial Crime, we lose sight of the fact that there is a real human cost, including Human Trafficking and Modern Slavery. Unfortunately, this is all around us, but often just out of sight.

People can become entrapped making our clothes, serving our food, picking our crops, working in factories, or working in houses as cooks, cleaners or nannies. There are also the children and adults being abducted for removal of organs to be sold on the black market.

Are we really aware of the red flags and signs that this is happening? How can we do more to help domestic and international efforts to stop these crimes? What more can financial institutions do to identify networks involved in these activities that are operating within their books?

Find out on The RAW Compliance Community.

The Money Laundering Red Flag Series: Illicit Wildlife Trade
Wednesday, December 2nd
5-6 pm HKT

The illegal wildlife trade (IWT) is a major transnational organised crime, which generates billions of criminal proceeds each year. The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) recently published its first global report on IWT, which makes a unique contribution by assessing the money laundering (ML) aspects of wildlife crimes, and by demonstrating how jurisdictions should apply the FATF standards to combat IWT.

​This webinar will bring together key players in both public and private sectors to share their experience on success stories in IWT and different approaches to identify commercial and financial red flags and combat illicit wildlife trade.​
