The IAB and the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry bring together government-regulated finance professionals and one of the world’s most influential business communities.
The IAB is recognised and authorised by HM Treasury as an Anti-Money Laundering supervisory body under UK law. This is not merely a credential – it’s a guarantee of accountability.
IAB members in practice operate under mandatory Anti-Money Laundering supervision. So as well as being qualified, they are subject to inspections, sanctions and ongoing compliance obligations.
All IAB members are required to maintain their knowledge through structured CPD, ensuring they are up-to-date with legislation, tax practice, Making Tax Digital and evolving business requirements.
Members of the IAB are bound by a formal code of conduct. Which means businesses can appoint them with complete confidence, knowing that their professional standards are supported and monitored by us.
IAB qualifications and membership are recognised across UK regulatory and government framework s –providing a level of professional assurance that unregulated providers cannot offer.
Individually the IAB and LCCI have outstanding reputations. Together they represent a great partnership that champions the best in entrepreneurial spirit.
