Today, June 3, 2024, DSI will launch the DSI Anti Money Laundering (AML) register. With this, we are taking an important step towards increasing the trust and competence of professionals in the AML sector. This initiative is the result of close collaboration between AML professionals in the financial sector, leading educators, and DSI.
“With the launch of this new DSI register, we provide a uniform solution for registering the knowledge and integrity of AML professionals working in the financial sector. Certified professionals thus demonstrate their competence,” said Floris Mreijen, Executive Director at DSI.
To complete a registration, AML professionals must have completed training with a DSI-accredited educator. The DSI Accreditation Committee, in collaboration with experts from the DSI Advisory committee on Compliance Professionals, has accredited two educational institutions: VU Amsterdam and ACAMS. Other educators may follow in the near future.
“This accreditation is an important recognition by the DSI Accreditation Committee that our program meets stringent quality criteria,” says Tom Loonen, Program Director of FEC-Risk Expert at VU Amsterdam. “We are therefore pleased that our students can be directly admitted to this register.”

“It is a distinct honor and responsibility for ACAMS to be appointed an accredited DSI educator. This designation provides ACAMS-trained anti-financial crime professionals in the Netherlands with further recognition, demonstrating their high level of competency and commitment. We applaud the launch of the DSI Anti-Money Laundering (AML) register, which sets a new industry benchmark, and thank DSI for entrusting ACAMS with this important mandate.” – Neil Sternthal, CEO of ACAMS.
