BSA/AML Institute - Virtual 

The formal requirements for financial institution compliance under the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) continue to be significant. With the regulatory agencies committing to tougher and more inclusive BSA/AML examinations, it is just as important as ever to make certain your BSA/AML program is appropriate for your institution's risk exposure.

Attendees will cover all of the primary requirements of each segment of the regulation and receive guidance on best practice expectations in each area. When completed, each attendee will have the in-depth knowledge, resources, and peer networks to effectively manage their BSA/AML function or audit this function properly.

Our units of study include:

• Bank Secrecy Act and Anti-Money Laundering program requirements, including emerging trends and industry observations
