Emerging Technologies: Protecting your Organization from Criminal Schemes
9:00AM – 12:00PM

With the help of the latest technology to enhance criminal activity, and the constant increase and development of electronic products to move currency around the world, it is imperative to have controls in place to protect your organization. Is your AML department up-to-date with the latest information? Do you have the tools to stay ahead of the emerging financial crimes? Let expert presenters walk you through the best practices, teach you how to create optimized money laundering prevention programs and pinpoint the risks posed by emerging trends such as peer-to-peer lending, thirdparty payment processing, remote deposit, store valued cards and mobile banking. Separate registration required.

An A to Z Guide to Conducting AML Investigations

Successful money laundering operations rely on layers of complexity to avoid detection.

This session’s A to Z approach teaches you the critical skills needed to perform comprehensive AML investigations. Expert presenters provide a detailed road map, starting with the initial discovery of suspicious transactions, leading you through multiple investigative techniques and culminating with a practical guide to accurate reporting. Special emphasis will be placed on interviewing techniques, effective data gathering and analytical procedures. Regardless of the size of your organization, you will leave the session with the confidence and skills needed to lead highly successful investigations. Separate registration required.
