NEW YORK, August 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Traliant, a leader in online compliance training, today announced new and enhanced courses designed to help employers protect their organizations from legal and financial-related risks tied to Money Laundering (AML) and insider trading. A new Global Anti-Money Laundering course, updated and U.S Anti-Money Laundering, and updated Avoiding Insider Trading, educate employees on key laws and regulations and provide strategies to identify, avoid and report these illegal practices.
