Antigua St. John’s - CIBC FirstCaribbean International Bank is again lending its financial support to the 4th Annual Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) Anti Fraud and Financial Crimes Conference.

The Conference, organised by KAW Management, is expected to attract delegates representing financial and non financial organisations from Antigua & Barbuda and the rest of the Caribbean.
 
Participants include personnel from banks, credit unions, insurance companies, gaming companies, money service businesses, lending agencies, regulators and mortgage brokers. Also invited to attend are representatives of law firms, trust companies, the Registrar of co-operatives, accounting firms, financial intelligence units, brokerage firms, law enforcement agencies, offshore service providers and telecommunications companies.
 
Country Manager at CIBC FirstCaribbean International Bank Mr. Michael Spencer said the bank was very pleased to once again be associated with the conference, as financial institutions play an important role in effectively dealing with money laundering, fraud and terror financing.
 

Managing Director of KAW Management, Mr. Kem Warner, thanked the bank for its ongoing support.
 
“CIBC FirstCaribbean International Bank has partnered with us in the past and we thank them for their support. We are committed to the support of the global fight against money laundering, fraud and financial crimes. In addition, we see our conference as a venue to promote the jurisdiction of Antigua & Barbuda not only as safe and stable but also to show the rest of the world that we are all in the global fight together.”
 
Due to the efforts of KAW Management, Antigua & Barbuda is now one of the few Caribbean countries qualified as a venue for candidates aspiring to become Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists (CAMS).
 
The Conference will be held August 20 & 21, 2012 at the Sandals Grande Antigua Resort & Spa.
