Chief Superintendent of Financial Intelligence and Investigation Bureau (FIIB) Lam Man-han signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with President of the Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants (ISCA) Mr Teo Ser Luck at a virtual ceremony on April 24 to enhance the Force officers’ capability and credibility in combatting money laundering activities and expand the Force’s talent pool of financial forensic professionals.
Both sides will establish a comprehensive framework and pathway for ISCA to provide professional training to officers on forensic accounting and investigation, digital forensics, financial crime, and professional ethics. Upon completion of the training and attainment of relevant work experience, the officers will be conferred financial forensic professional credentials by ISCA to attest their competence to support the frontline units in financial investigation and give expert views on financial evidence in court.
Lam Man-han said, “The collaboration marks a significant step forward in strengthening the Force’s capacity in combatting money laundering activities and demonstrates our commitment to fighting financial crime. We look forward to working closely with ISCA and materialising our goals.” Mr Teo agreed and emphasised the importance of cooperation in combatting financial crime on a global scale.
FIIB will keep exploring new cooperation opportunities and liaise closely with its counterparts in fighting money laundering and predicate offences.
