for international affairs such as negotiations with the OECD, FATF, G7 and

plus I now have the advantage of the course notes and the listed web links." John E. Langlois, St Peter Port,Guernsey, C.I.

some experience in the areas of the programme, I nonetheless also learnt a
great deal, which will benefit me in the work that I do." Rowena

stimulating - the course itself was informative and would help to formulate
useful strategies for my clients." Téj P. Thind IFM International Network,
