The dilemma of money laundering is an undeniable problem faced by many institutions all over the world. Due to its prevalence, the need for organisations to deal with the problem has become a global priority, regardless of the size of the financial institutions. Despite the compliance AML efforts undertaken by various institutions, AML compliance appears to be a daunting challenge, the question posed by this research is whether there is a need for independent anti-money laundering (AML) compliance reviews, given the invasive nature of money laundering in financial institutions. Secondly, the research addresses the question of who is well positioned to perform the independent AML compliance reviews. In addressing the second question, the research will discuss why internal audit is an invaluable resource in terms of risk management processes and the reasons why they are an integral part of the AML solution. gm2014 Auditing unrestricted 2014-09-01T05:22:16Z 2014-09-01T05:22:16Z 2014-04-24 2013 Mini Dissertation Modisagae, T 2013, The Role of internal audit in the Independent review of anti-money laundering compliance in South Africa, MPhil dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd<http://hdl.handle.net/2263/41829> F14/41314/gm http://hdl.handle.net/2263/41829 en © 2014 University of Pretoria.
