FinCEN’s 2014 guidance outlines BSA obligations including SAR filing requirements for banking Marijuana-Related Businesses (MRBs). Whether or not your institution chooses to bank these businesses, it is imperative to your compliance program that you identify all potential MRBs in your customer base, even if they did not self-identify at account opening.

To ensure you identify all potential MRBs in your existing customer base and complete the due diligence necessary to understand the nature of business — you likely have to rely on time-consuming manual reports and keyword searches.

This 20-minute session details strategies to overcome the challenges of identifying high-risk customers for more effective due diligence, targeted monitoring, and enhanced reporting. Learn how Verafin uses artificial intelligence and open-source data in high-risk customer finders to automatically identify Marijuana-Related Businesses.

Highlights of this 20-minute presentation:

- Review of highlights from FinCEN Guidance, including red flags, due diligence requirements, and compliance obligations for Marijuana-Related Businesses.
- Discussion on the challenges of identifying Marijuana-Related Business in your existing customer base, who did not self-identify at account opening.
- Overview of the benefits of an Intelligent Segmentation approach to your high-risk customer management program with a focus on MRBs.
- How to get alerted to Marijuana-Related Businesses and other high-risk customers in your existing customer base with Verafin’s high-risk-finder analysis.

Fraud is on the rise, and contact centers are a target. It's time to fight back. Be proactive and outsmart fraudsters with technology.
The latest advances in machine learning techniques and analytics combined with biometrics capabilities takes contact center protection to a whole new level. Contact centers now have the ability to expose previously unsuspected fraudulent activities. That empowers them to not only prevent known fraudsters from attacking, but more impressively, expose new fraudsters that were operating "under the radar" for a long time. In the ongoing response to sophisticated fraud attacks, the creation of high-quality fraudster watchlists from historical recordings – and automatically populating and updating them – is a revolution in the fight against fraud

Following the G20 Osaka Summit, RI is bringing together global central banking leaders to consider how ESG and climate risk integration into central banking and monetary policy across G20 member states could influence the investment decision-making of global investors.

An end-to-end cyber risk management approach can be achieved if you:
1.Understand cyber risks from a business perspective and assess the nature of any potential cyber-related losses – know your threats.
2.Measure the financial impact of cyber exposures and quantify how much is acceptable across the organization – know yourself.
3.Manage the insurance and recovery process by having a clear action plan based off your capabilities and capacities – know what you can do.

Join Marsh Risk Consulting’s, Swabhiman Chhotray and Marsh’s Cyber Leader, Naureen Rasul as they discuss a risk management framework that allows you to understand, measure, and manage your inherent cyber risks.

SFTR Data Preparation, Enrichment and Interoperability

Given the very manual nature of workflows used for security financing transactions in general and security lending transaction and given the level of detail being required to be reported under SFTR many firms will struggle to obtain the data points needed for reporting.
