ACAMS Today

Beyond being a source of news about the association, ACAMS Today is a resource for hands-on information aimed at helping our members become stronger professionals. It does this through a combination of features, among them practical guidance articles, news items, pieces covering AML issues in different parts of the world, book reviews, analysis pieces, member polls on important topics in the field, articles on career management and more.

Our goal with ACAMS Today is to fulfill two primary purposes: reflect members’ interests and be a forum for their voices to be heard. As such, we regularly feature contributions from our members on their respective areas of expertise. Indeed, we welcome such articles and realize that they are key in making ACAMS Today a distinctive professional publication. So don’t be shy: if there’s a topic you want to discuss in an article, please contact Karla Monterrosa-Yancey, the editor of ACAMS Today, at kmonterrosa@acams.org.
