The Institute for Financial Integrity (IFI) has launched its Fundamentals of Financial Crime Compliance training program, in partnership with the American University of Iraq - Baghdad (AUIB), the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI), and K2 Integrity (K2i).
The first two programs were held in July and August of this year, and the next program is scheduled for November 23-December 4, 2025.
According to a press release, the program is designed to help protect the financial integrity of the Iraqi and global financial system by equipping participants with skills and knowledge to promote a culture of financial crime compliance and risk management throughout their institutions.
Participants are taught by leading financial integrity experts on a range of counter-illicit finance topics with an emphasis on anti-money laundering (AML), countering the financing of terrorism (CFT), and establishing a culture of compliance.
Ziad Chaaban, CEO of AUIB, said:
"This initiative gives our banking professionals the knowledge and tools they need in AML/CFT, risk management, and building a stronger culture of compliance. With its blend of online learning, on-campus instruction, and certification from all partners, this program represents an important milestone in modernizing Iraq's financial system and aligning it with global standards of financial integrity."
