Anti-Money Laundering

Program

Your Tennessee Credit Union League has developed a program to prepare member credit unions to effectively and efficiently meet the operating requirements and regulatory compliance issues of the Bank Secrecy Act. The program will assist credit unions to get into a posture of recognizable compliance.

Anti-Money Laundering begins with a basic review of the reporting requirements and identity verification requirements of the Bank Secrecy Act and the USA PATRIOT Act and moves into a discussion of the required elements of a credit union’s compliance program, including establishment and maintenance of the program.

Presenter

She also develops and provides training in several areas of regulatory compliance including lending, savings, marketing, and operations.
