The FIBA AML Institute and its partnership with Florida International University

The FIBA AML Institute was created:

To help financial institutions keep pace with the rapidly changing regulatory landscape;
To help pioneer the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing;
To provide financial institutions with an AML training source they can trust; and
To help prevent banks from running afoul of the regulators.

Why partner with FIU?

FIBA and FIU’s College of Business, Office of Executive & Education, were a natural fit because both entities believe that top-notch education and training is a necessity.

FIBA-FIU certifications

The Certifications FIBA AMLCA and FIBA CPAML, offer a combination of case studies, real examples, and theory which are invaluable components of the academic content, and are designed to assist your staff and Directors to gain practical knowledge and implement risk based methods to comply with internationally accepted AML/CFT standards.
