ACFCS Advisory Groups bring together financial crime professionals within a country or region to advance training, share thought leadership, and build the connections that strengthen fincrime prevention in their communities. Through cross-sector collaboration, professional development, and local events, our Advisory Groups help practitioners grow their skills and improve results against financial crime in all its forms.
Each Advisory Group is volunteer-led and organized into Committees that focus on specific goals, such as engaging with industry associations and regulators, shaping training and professional development, and hosting regional and virtual events. A Steering Committee made up of Committee leaders sets the group's strategic direction, while ACFCS staff provide guidance, promotional support, and access to the association's platforms and resources.
Advisory Group members serve as subject matter experts, contributing to whitepapers, webinars, training content, and live events that address the most pressing risks and regulatory priorities in their region. In return, members receive complimentary ACFCS membership, speaking and authorship opportunities, and a growing network of peers dedicated to advancing the fight against financial crime.
Participation is open to ACFCS members in each Advisory Group's region, and applications are reviewed on a rolling basis.
