FICA and Anti-Money Laundering Basics

Every business that handles money can be used by criminals to hide where that money came from. This course shows you how the Financial Intelligence Centre Act works in practice: who must comply, how to know your client, which records to keep and when to report. It is built around real South African duties and practical tools you can use from tomorrow.
