COURSE DESCRIPTION
Anti-Money Laundering Legislation: This course for bankers,
trust officers, and compliance officers continues the in-depth
comparative study of the U.S. and foreign national legal
responses and international responses to the problems
of money laundering, economic crime, cyber-sabotage and
terrorism. In particular, this course focuses on The Caribbean
and Latin America. This course now provides in-depth analysis
of the international regulation of money movements with
particular regard to Latin America and The Caribbean. The
student continues to explore the role and duties of the
compliance officer including due diligence investigations
of politically exposed persons, potential tax evaders and
their counsel, and the required filing of information with
regulatory authorities, including "no tipping off"
rules.
We will
also explore treaties designed to curb the international
flow of "flying money". In addition we will examine
the new typologies for money launders as well as some of
the old tried and true washing methods of transforming illicit
money into respectable money. A portion of our time will
be devoted to an examination of what is considered to be
the main event in this arena: the laws designed to take
the profit from the criminal. This will invoke, in part,
examining the weapon we know as asset forfeiture and a new
weapon which has emerged within the boardrooms of organized
crime: cybercrime.
This
course is led by Dr. Robert J. Munro of the Center for International
Financial Crimes Studies as well as a law librarian of the
Frederic Levin College of Law. He is the co-author of the
five volume treatise, Money Laundering, Asset Forfeiture
and International Financial Crimes and the three volume
treatise, Cyber crime and Security. Besides the final examination,
this course uses common law case examination, complex case
studies, individual assignments and a research course paper.
