The Webinar will discuss the current changes in the marketplace and expose the new faces of AML and examine areas of Politically Exposed People (PEPs) regulation that pose present and future challenges for regulated businesses.

Two areas of significant interest are to know your customer (KYC compliance) procedures – which involve customer acceptance, identification, and verification policies and the risk profiling of clients – and sanctions filtering, which involves filtering customers and counterparties against government sanctions lists, suspected terrorists, narcotics traffickers, and designated financial institutions and territories.

Why Should You Attend:

Reports published in the Panama Papers on the secretive industry that banks and lawyers use to hide the financial holdings of some of the world’s top leaders and billionaires brought a powerful global response. The documents expose the offshore holdings of 12 current and former world leaders, associates of Presidents and high profile individuals. In principle, there is nothing wrong with doing business with a Politically Exposed Person (PEP), provided that a number of due diligence criteria are met on an ongoing basis.

This increased scrutiny has resulted in a recent spike in the number of companies getting, exposed, fined for sanctions breaches, which clearly indicates the need for banks to re-evaluate their existing bank secrecy act compliance programs to ensure that they provide maximum protection from increased regulatory scrutiny and serious risk.
