Firm-wide risk assessment

    FWRA Training for ICPAC Members

    The firm-wide risk assessment (FWRA) is the foundation of an accounting firm's AML framework and a recurring theme in ICPAC monitoring reviews. This IPE training takes accountants and auditors through building an FWRA end to end: identifying inherent risks across clients, services, geographies and delivery channels, scoring them, mapping controls, and evidencing review and approval.
