The International Compliance Association (ICA), a leading professional body for the global regulatory and financial crime compliance community, announced a partnership with the Insurance Institute of East Africa to provide ICA education in financial crime prevention and governance, risk, and compliance in the East African region.

East African jurisdictions Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda remain particularly vulnerable to money laundering, fraud, and terrorist financing and are among the lowest scoring countries in the 2019 Transparency International Corruption Perceptions Index. The ICA’s suite of accredited qualifications are designed for every level of expertise and aim to equip regulatory and financial crime compliance professionals with the knowledge and skills they need to mitigate the threat of financial crime, better analyze situations, and consider appropriate risk controls.
