This two-day school covers in detail the issues and opportunities in the ever-expanding environment of the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) and reviews the entire realm of the BSA from “A” to “Z”. From decades old Currency Transaction Reporting (CTR) and various recordkeeping requirements, to institutional risk assessment, customer due diligence (CDD), beneficial ownership expectations/modifications, and suspicious activity reporting, students from the novice appointee to the tenured AML/CFT (BSA) professional will find the discussions and interactions to be of great value.
Recent Congressional focus and well-publicized BSA enforcement actions and fines continue to support a climate proving AML/CFT compliance remains of paramount importance to all financial institutions. Treasury continues to rely on financial institutions to serve as the “front-line gatekeepers” for law enforcement efforts to safeguard the U.S. financial system from the abuses of financial crimes, including money laundering and terrorist financing. The federal regulatory agencies continue to rely on financial institutions to take “every reasonable step” to identify, minimize, and manage any risks that illicit financial activity may pose to the individual institution and the industry. Ongoing initiatives by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), and continued expansions of the federal examination procedures, reinforce the need to have a strong AML/CFT (BSA) program at your institution.
This seminar assists financial institutions in meeting the annual training requirements imposed by the BSA regulations and provides attendees with the opportunity to network with other professionals interested in AML/CFT (BSA) compliance.
