The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted lives in numerous ways including in the risk management environment. This disruption has not only occurred by interrupting the ability of risk management and compliance professionals to carry out their duties, but will also have implications for risk management and compliance systems.

To help address this disruption, FTS Cayman Islands is hosting a webinar on COVID-19, AML & Risk Management; covering new FATF COVID-19 AML Guidelines, Cybersecurity risks and updates from the Financial Reporting Authority.

Ms. Kim France, Sanctions Coordinator of the Cayman Financial Reporting Authority will speak on the FRA key updates during COVID-19 while Mr. Paul Byles, Director of FTS will be presenting on the new FATF COVID-19 AML guidelines.

They will be joined by two Directors from Deloitte, Mr Wayne Green and Ms Alexandra Green who will be discussing specific Cybersecurity risks.

The main presentations will be followed by a panel discussion featuring all the speakers.

“This first webinar aims to help compliance professionals to refocus in the current environment which can be very distracting for effective risk management. Cyber risks, and FATF COVID-19 policy and guidance are highly relevant at this time and those topics along with important updates from the FRA makes for a valuable agenda for much needed compliance training”, said Paul Byles, Director of FTS.

The webinar will take place on Thursday 4 June, 2020, from 9.00am – 11.00am. Registration is KYD$100. To register visit www.ftscayman.com/events. Deadline for registration is 2 June.
