This program is designed to assist in defining the investigation process and provide additional tools to support both the investigative teams and those who review the decision to submit a report or not. Using a number of scenarios throughout the program you will be asked to consider what investigative steps you would undertake to make a decision and assess potential changes in customer risk rating.

Designed for those who investigate, team leaders and managers the program reflects on regulator expectations and practical investigation activities commensurate with the type of alert.
