What This Requires.

ProfytAI Regulatory Intelligence

Type: requirement

Covered persons must formulate and maintain an annual AML training program for all their responsible officers and personnel.

Relationship

No lead-in or parent clause; this is the opening paragraph of Section 931, setting up the training-program duty that the following paragraphs elaborate (required content, audience-specific design, refresher frequency, and recordkeeping).

Why This Exists

Ensures staff have the ongoing knowledge needed to comply with AML/CFT duties under the AMLA and its RIRR, reducing the institution's money-laundering and terrorist-financing risk.

Implementation Considerations

Typically involves designing a written annual training curriculum, securing internal approval, and scheduling delivery to all responsible officers and personnel each year.

Interpretation Note · 'Covered persons' and 'this Part' are terms scoped elsewhere in the AML Part of the Manual, not defined in this excerpt; the AMLA and its RIRR are external instruments referenced but not reproduced here.
