This webinar will focus on the BSA reports and regulatory expectations including the requirements to file CTRs and SARs. Attendees will learn best practices to ensure AML compliance.
Why Should You Attend:
Real or perceived, over the last several years regulatory expectations have been heightened. As we enter 2017, and embark in a new year, what can we expect regarding Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) reporting expectations? The BSA requires that financial institutions have AML Programs that are “reasonably designed” to maintain appropriate records and file certain reports involving currency transactions and a financial institution’s customer relationships. Currency Transaction Reports (CTRs) and Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) are the primary means used by banks to satisfy the requirements of the BSA.
