What the EU's new anti-money-laundering rules ask of non-bank businesses: who is in scope, customer due diligence, monitoring, record-keeping and reporting, with Finland as the example.
AreaFinancial Crime, Sanctions and Fraud Prevention
This course gives the people in a non-bank business with anti-money-laundering obligations the overview they need: what money laundering and terrorist financing are, what the EU Anti-Money Laundering Regulation changes from July 2027, which businesses fall within scope, and the obligations that follow: the business risk assessment, customer due diligence, ongoing monitoring, record-keeping, and reporting a suspicion without tipping anyone off. Finnish law is the worked example for national requirements and sector differences. It’s written for staff in payment and e-money institutions, accounting and tax firms, real-estate agencies, trust and company service providers and law firms in scope.
In these businesses the rules reach far beyond the compliance officer: the person who opens a customer file, accepts a payment or notices an unusual transaction is the one who has to recognize what it means and what to do next. The course gives every one of them the same baseline, so due diligence is done the same way across the business and a suspicion is reported rather than discussed. It supports the training obliged entities must give their staff; whether an obligation is met remains a question for your own compliance lead.

Yes. A certificate of completion is issued when the knowledge check is passed, and the completion is recorded for your reporting.
It supports one, where a rule asks that people are trained on the subject, and TechClass records who completed it. Whether a requirement is met depends on your own policies and processes, so that is a question for your compliance lead or legal adviser.

An Essentials course gives everyone the concepts and rules in about an hour. A Skills course goes deeper for the roles that need it: about 8 hours with practice, a graded assessment and a certificate that lists the skills, licensed per learner.
