FinCEN's Customer Due Diligence (CDD) rule expanded Know Your Customer into a fifth pillar of AML under the BSA. It reaches beyond the customer legal entity to the entity's beneficial owners and controlling persons, and beyond account opening to ongoing updating and monitoring against a baseline of normal activity for the customer type.
This 60-minute FinCEN CDD rule webinar starts with the existing four pillars of AML, then explains the fifth: what triggered the expansion, its purposes according to FinCEN, the three covered entity types and the exclusions. You'll review the requirements for risk profiles, updating customer information, establishing baseline transactions and transaction monitoring. Full compliance is required for accounts opened on or after May 11, 2018.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
CDD goes well beyond traditional KYC, and before it became a requirement few banks met these standards. Understanding the rule helps your institution identify beneficial owners correctly and monitor customer activity on an ongoing basis.
This session suits commercial, small business, private and international banking staff, new customer processing staff and supervisors, and fraud, compliance and AML professionals at banks, brokers and other depository institutions.
