Professional knowledge in support of prevention

What is GIFCP?

The Georgian Institute of Financial Crime Prevention (GIFCP) is a platform for professional knowledge and development in financial crime prevention, AML/CFT, international sanctions, compliance and related fields.

Understanding financial crime risk requires both knowledge and the ability to apply it. GIFCP exists to strengthen that connection through professional education, analysis and knowledge sharing. We focus on understanding international approaches and relating them to local professional needs.
