Dear Anti-Money Laundering Professional, Imagine having more than 50 of the world’s top experts guide you through:
It’s information that’s never been more important or vital especially in light of recent events... In the past two years, BankAtlantic agreed to pay a $10 Million U.S. Justice Department forfeiture and was forced to conduct an extremely expensive “look-back.” ABN AMRO paid a total of $80 Million to state and federal authorities for violations of various regulations, and poor controls of correspondent accounts that let Russian shell companies move money. Israel Discount Bank of New York paid a total of $37 Million to state and federal authorities also for correspondent account compliance deficiencies. And the list is not limited to banks… Western Union has shelled out a total of $19 Million in penalties for state and federal AML violations in the past three years. And Oppenheimer & Co., the first Wall Street securities firm to be penalized for a Bank Secrecy Act violation, paid $2.8 Million for not having adequate AML training and staff among other infractions. These are just a few illustrations of stepped-up enforcement by U.S. regulators, most of which were aimed at non-United States institutions. These are among the enforcement actions that our expert panelists will dissect at this year’s conference—giving you the opportunity to learn from others’ mistakes and avoid similar fines, penalties and forfeitures for your institution wherever you are located. And that is only one example of what you’ll take away from the information-packed sessions offered to you when you register for this year’s conference.
