Workshop A

Incident Management for Compliance: Defining Operational Roles and Responsibilities

The traditional roles of operational compliance departments are no longer sufficient to manage the complex threats now being faced by financial and non-depository institutions. These roles are now evolving to include enterprise-wide crisis management functions and effective incident response action plans. During this three hour workshop, learn the tools needed to manage your resources and assets during a crisis—such as data intrusion, reputational damages due to fines, enemies from within the organization, terrorist attacks, natural disasters, health emergencies and other events. Learn how your compliance tools can be used as “action assets” to help resolve an extreme incident, and understand how fraud and compliance red flags may be used as indicators of a potential risk incident. Expert instructors provide guidance on creating executable strategies to enhance communication, coordination and cooperation within your department in response to an incident; orientation to executive level command structure response; as well as thorough familiarization of the law enforcement and public safety response models. Separate registration required.

BSA Refresher for the Experienced AML/CTF Professional

As an experienced AML/CTF professional, your understanding and execution of BSA and USA PATRIOT Act requirements must be thorough if you are to avoid potential inadequacies in your compliance program. However, as recent headlines have indicated, organizations are still failing to comply with the basic requirements of these regulations, resulting in jeopardized reputations and vulnerability to criminal activity. Attend this crucial workshop to review your obligations under the Bank Secrecy and USA PATRIOT Acts, re-examine their strict requirements, and ensure your program adheres to the expectations laid out by them. This session also delves into recent enforcement actions and teaches you how prepare your AML program to pass increased regulatory scrutiny. Separate registration required.
