Ghana AML/CFT Compliance Masterclass
A structured, examination-aware programme covering Ghana's core AML/CFT compliance obligations across eight sessions and twelve training hours. Delivered wherever your institution needs it.
What each session covers.
Act 1044: What Supervisors Expect
Ghana's AML primary legislation seen through the supervisor's lens. The obligations Act 1044 places on the institution, the AMLRO, and directors and officers — including S.38 (24-hour STR clock) and S.48 (personal liability). What evidence BoG and FIC examiners now look for first.
Regulatory Architecture & GIABA
Ghana's full regulatory stack — Act 1044, L.I. 1987, the BoG/FIC Guideline 2025, the National AML/CFT/CPF Policy 2025–2029 — and how it locks into FATF and GIABA methodology. The Immediate Outcomes GIABA uses to evaluate Ghana, and where the 3rd Round will look first.
Ghana Red Flags: Recognition Patterns
Sector-by-sector ML/TF indicators specific to Ghana's economy — galamsey proceeds, Sakawa fraud, mobile money layering through agent networks, trade-based ML, procurement corruption, PEP-linked patterns. What an examiner expects your front line to be able to recognise.
Case Analysis Workshop: Spot the Gaps
A facilitated workshop. Participants work realistic Ghana case scenarios, identify the compliance gaps an examiner would find, and present their reasoning under AMLRO critique. Where Day 1's regulatory content meets the working compliance function.
STR Writing Essentials
Writing STRs that the FIC can act on. The 5W+H narrative framework, quantification standards, goAML field completion, the seven common errors that result in returned STRs, and the 24-hour filing clock from Act 1044 S.38(1).
STR Critique Workshop
Supervised STR-writing exercise on realistic Ghana-based typology scenarios. Small-group format with line-by-line AMLRO critique on every narrative. The session that converts STR writing from a competence into a working habit.
AMLRO Challenges & Board Dynamics
The AMLRO's lived reality — independence under commercial pressure, protecting the STR filing function, succession risk, the BoG relationship, and the Board-level conversations that determine your professional exposure under Act 1044 S.48.
GIABA Readiness Diagnostic
An institution-level readiness check against the Immediate Outcomes GIABA will use to evaluate Ghana in the 3rd Round — IO.1 risk assessment, IO.4 preventive measures, IO.6/IO.7 STR quality and ML investigation, IO.8–IO.11 confiscation, TF and PF. What participants can fix before November 2026.
