Anita Clifford has contributed to the Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Financial Crime Prevention section of the Practice Compliance & Management Service on Practical Law which is published by Thomson Reuters.
The resources are directed at assisting law firms and others in the regulated sector with their financial crime duties day to day.
Areas covered include:
• key practice notes on compliance with UK financial sanctions (which has seen an unprecedented number of sanctions designations this year)
• observance of the prohibitions in practice
• reporting to OFSI
• licensing
• the connection that can arise between sanctions and anti-money laundering duties
The contribution on AML-specific topics will also be published on Practical Law later in 2022. For more info please see: [Practical Law]
Anita has a strong financial crime interest and advises on anti-money laundering investigations and regulatory requirements, suspicious activity reporting and account freezing and is a ranked junior for POCA work in both Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners.
She is also a contributor to the Lloyd’s Law Reports: Financial Crime and co-author of a book on the Criminal Finances Act 2017 with Jonathan Fisher QC.
