Tipps und Entscheidungshilfen für die Ausbildungswahl

Money laundering has been enshrined in the Swiss Criminal Code since 1990 and has therefore been actively combated in Switzerland since the early 1990s. Art. 305bis criminalizes money laundering, while Art. 305ter regulates the reporting rights of members of the financial sector and sanctions insufficient due diligence in financial transactions.

The Federal Act on Combating Money Laundering in the Financial Sector (AMLA) was enacted on October 10, 1997 and is the responsibility of banks, investment companies (e.g. investment companies), venture capital funds and insurance companies (financial intermediaries) on the one hand and the para-banking sector such as independent trustees, money changers and transmitters and asset managers on the other.

The Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA is responsible for the supervision of financial intermediaries with regard to compliance with the AMLA.

Financial intermediaries and the para-banking sector are under enormous pressure in Switzerland and abroad in terms of legal and image risks. They are therefore dependent on experienced employees and specialists in the area of AMLA who are familiar with the current regulations. Appropriate training courses are essential for compliance officers at banks, insurance companies, employees of the central register or auditing organizations.

The education portal Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch is recommended for a suitable overview of possible and recommendable education courses in the area of AMLA. It gives you a good overview of the current training courses available and puts you in direct contact with the individual training providers. You also benefit from additional services on the portal which will be of great benefit to you when choosing and planning your further education.

Questions and answers

In order to participate in the GWG continuing education, further training of the Institute for Financial Planning, you should have at least three years of professional experience in the financial sector. Please contact the provider directly for further requirements.

The IfFP's complete advanced training course on the subject of GWG comprises 14 to 21 half-days. However, only individual modules can be taken.

After completing all three modules, graduates of the GWG further training course are awarded the IfFP Institute for Financial Planning and Fund Academy "Financial Services Compliance FA/IfFP" certificate, which is recognized by the Swiss insurance industry's continuing education, further training register, Cicero.

Employees of banks, asset management companies and fund & asset management at all levels who work in client and product-oriented functions as well as LECO departments are the target group of the "Compliance: AML, products and distribution, taxes" course. In addition to those responsible for the Anti-Money Laundering Act, it is also aimed at those responsible for tax issues, sales and product managers in Fund & Asset Management, client advisors, employees in Distribution and Sales Support as well as Legal & Compliance.
