Description
CGSS from ACAMS is for people in sanctions screening, trade compliance and sanctions advisory, and it shows you can manage sanctions risk across borders. The biggest share of the practice test goes to governance and enforcement, with due diligence and screening close behind. About two years in sanctions or financial crime work is recommended before you apply.
