    Event Synopsis
    In response to a prevailing view that the US was becoming a haven for money laundering, as well as emerging risks posed by advances in financial technology and the advent of virtual currencies), Congress passed the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020 (“AMLA 2020”) as part of the National Defense Authorization Act. AMLA 2020 represents the most significant changes to federal anti-money laundering legislation since the passage of the Patriot Act in 2001. Within this expansive new legislation is the Corporate Transparency Act, which created the framework for a nationwide registry for beneficial ownership. AMLA 2020 also created new mandates for reporting and record keeping, expanded subpoenas of U.S. law enforcement, and enhanced the role whistleblowers in detecting and reporting financial crime. These enhancements to existing anti-money laundering laws will force financial institutions to remain vigilant while increasing the compliance requirements for market “gatekeepers” previously unaffected by AML laws.

    Join a panel of key thought leaders and professionals assembled by The Knowledge Group as they delve into an in-depth analysis of the significant reforms proposed in AMLA 2020. Speakers will also provide comprehensive guidance on how to respond to these enhanced regulatory requirements.

    Key topics include:
    • BSA/AML Compliance: Legal Overview
    • Significant Reforms Under the Enhanced AMLA 2020
    • Risks Posed by Enhanced AML/BSA Obligations
    • Key Implications to Your Compliance Policies
    • Crucial Pillars for an Effective BSA/AML Compliance Program
