Alumni in Focus
High Level ILEA Alumni Use ILEA Money Laundering Skills:
Alvin Bermido & Matthew David
The Philippine Anti-Money Laundering Council’s (AMLC) Deputy Director for Commitments and Policy Alvin Bermido and Director for Investigation and Enforcement Matthew David, both ILEA Bangkok alumni, reported their ILEA experience at the March 2019 Casino Financial Crimes Investigations Course, providing timely and useful insight.
Both alumni noted the ILEA training was relevant ahead of the formal implementation of the National Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CTF) Strategy, which the Philippines believes will close gaps in its current AML/CTF regime. Bermido also included concepts from the ILEA course in his presentation at a training for the Philippine National AML/CFT Coordinating Committee.
