The Bahrain Institute of Banking and Finance (BIBF) has announced the launch of a fully online and self-paced course on Anti-Money Laundering (AML), designed specifically for professionals in the insurance sector in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
This initiative is part of the BIBF’s ongoing commitment to support the regional insurance industry and provide accessible digital training solutions.
The course has been developed to support insurance professionals seeking to remain compliant and informed, while navigating an evolving risk and regulatory landscape.
Designed for individuals working in compliance, risk, operations, internal audit, and related roles, the course provides comprehensive AML awareness within the insurance context. It covers key concepts, industry best practices, and regulatory expectations, with a focus on practical application.
Delivered entirely online, the course offers self-paced flexibility, allowing participants to learn at their convenience. The interactive learning experience includes real-world case studies, knowledge checks, and content customised to reflect the regulatory frameworks and compliance priorities of the Saudi market.
Ms Manal Mashkoor, head of the Insurance Centre at the BIBF, said that future versions of the programme are planned for other GCC markets, ensuring broader regional relevance and further reinforcing BIBF’s leadership in digital insurance training across the region.
In May 2025, BIBF signed a strategic partnership agreement with the Financial Academy in Riyadh to deliver specialised training programmes and professional workshops in the field of insurance across KSA. The partnership aims to enhance the capabilities of national talent and elevate the performance of the insurance sector.
