Anti-money laundering and counter terrorist financing

Completed and passed a 2 hour CIMA course on anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing AML/CTF.  A good on-line course that made it much more interesting than I had expected.  My evidence is recorded here.

Notes from a talk by Andy Carfax:

How Systems can unlock growth

Excel tool to easily copy location of spreadsheets

If you use a network drive (or Evernote or Dropbox) adding the location tool to your tool bar will save you having to email spreadsheets.  Sending the link is much quicker and gives access to the latest version of a changing document.  The tool allows you to copy the location of the file with a right click and control C.

Adding the (file) location tool to Excel or Word

(Note that the destination of this link is in Evernote - if your employer blocks you from Evernote, you may have to view it at home but it is worth your time.)

Technical update - IFRS and UK GAAP

Found this one hour webcast update kindly shared by wwwDeloitte.com (use STOJUL13 as the recording ID).  It has useful information, especially about the proposed changes for accounting treatment for leases and FRS102 the new standard to replace UKGAAP .

Tracking changes in Word (warning) and PDFs

Interesting discussion about risks of track changes in Word and recommendation of using pdfs instead
