• Identifying a social media and online identity that feels true to you

The Law Society of NSW is pleased to deliver this recorded webinar complimentary to the legal profession, featuring a panel discussion on anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF).

In this recorded webinar, you will hear from a team of international and national experts about the upcoming AML/CTF reforms in Australia, as well as their experience in the area.  The session provides an informative overview of the proposed expanded Australian AML/CTF regime – Why are the reforms happening? When will they commence? How will the reforms affect solicitors? 

The webinar also covers some Australian and international case examples of how lawyers can unwittingly, or in some cases knowingly, be caught up in money laundering.  The examples will also cover the risk of compliance breaches. 

This recorded webinar is suitable for a range of audiences, from early career lawyers, staff who will need to engage with the day-to-day management of AML/CTF compliance, to senior lawyers and principal practitioners.

Diving into the Legal Implications of Climate Change, this session will explore the guidance put out to practitioners to assist those who are unfamiliar with the legal issues associated with climate change and its impacts.
