Young Talents Workshop: Financial Crime - Wo Aufsichtsrecht und Strafrecht aufeinandertreffen Das Thema Finanzkriminalität genießt im Finanzsektor „Board Attention“. Das Management von Risiken im Zusammenhang mit Geldwäsche und Finanzsanktionen ist von existentieller Bedeutung für die Finanzbranche. Eine immer höhere Regelungsdichte und eine verschärfte Enforcement-Praxis von Aufsichts- und Strafverfolgungsbehörden verstärken diesen Trend. Die aufsichts- und strafrechtlichen Herausforderungen im Zusammenhang mit Financial Crime wollen wir mit Dir in unserem interaktiven Workshop diskutieren. Im Rahmen einer Fallstudie wirst Du zudem die Möglichkeit haben, als anwaltliche/r Beraterin oder Berater die Interessen einer Bank gegenüber der BaFin zu vertreten. Abgerundet wird das Programm durch einen Gastvortrag aus der Compliance-Praxis. Weiteres findest Du hier: https://lnkd.in/dCCvkDq5 #HengelerMueller #YoungTalents #workshop #compliance
