Event Synopsis:

On June 30, 2016, the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) issued a final regulation that sets forth the specific minimum requirements that its regulated institutions must use to maintain programs that monitor and filter transactions for potential anti-money laundering (AML) and Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) violations. The final rule requires regulated institutions to annually submit a board resolution or a senior officer's confirmation of compliance with the final rule. Effective January 1, 2017, the final rule will require financial services, insurance and banking industries that conduct business in New York to submit their first compliance certification on April 15, 2018.

With the final rule in place, it is important for companies regulated by the NYDFS to reevaluate and enhance the design and effectiveness of their existing AML programs to avoid potential risks and legal challenges.

In this Live Webcast, a panel of key thought leaders organized by The Knowledge Group will provide a discussion of the new anti-money regulations issued by the NYDFS and its implications to businesses. Speakers will also offer best practices that companies need to know to avoid unwanted regulatory liabilities.

Some of the major topics that will be covered in this course are:

- Overview of the New AML Regulations
- Compliance Certification
- Technical Requirements
- Designing Transaction Monitoring Program
- Maintaining Filtering Program
- Compliance Challenges
- Best Compliance Practices
