MIAMI, April 20 -- The Association of Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists® (ACAMS®) released today a new version of its Website www.ACAMS.org, which features professional networking functionality including the ability for members to set up a profile and connect directly with other members.
"The new Website embodies the core mission of ACAMS by giving members a tool to easily connect with other AML/CTF/Sanctions compliance professionals throughout the world, be it for questions about regulatory changes or tips on career advancement," said Executive Vice President John Byrne, CAMS. "In this industry, information exchange is critical not only within organizations, but between the public and private sectors. This site is the perfect conduit for open communication."
The Website also offers discussion forums and a resource center that provides reference materials, useful links and other documents for download. It also allows members to upload and share their own documents.
