Details

The webinar will discuss the updated CDD Rule which requires covered financial institutions to establish and maintain written procedures that are reasonably designed to identify and verify the beneficial owners of legal entity customers. The new rule also amends existing anti-money laundering (AML) program requirements by requiring covered financial institutions to implement and maintain risk-based procedures to conduct ongoing customer due diligence (CDD), including understanding the nature and purpose of customer relationships, conducting ongoing monitoring to identify and report suspicious transactions, and maintaining and updating customer information.


Recognizing and investigating suspicious activities is the key in safeguarding an organization's financial system from illicit use and combating money laundering. Timely and accurate reporting will promote national security through the collection, analysis, and dissemination of financial intelligence to the proper authorities.

Objectives of the Presentation
Financial institutions should begin taking the necessary steps to comply with the final rule. Some of the changes that may be required include:
  • Updating BSA/AML policies and procedures, including with specific regard to CIP policies and procedures
  • Updating new account opening procedures, including developing procedures to identify and verify identifies of beneficial owners who are not present during account opening
  • Updating Currency Transaction Report (CTR) aggregation procedures
  • Updating suspicious activity monitoring procedures
  • Updating risk assessments
  • Updating OFAC policies and procedures, including OFAC scanning procedures

In addition, the webinar will address the updated CDD Rule outlining explicit customer due diligence requirements and imposes a new requirement for these financial institutions to identify and verify the identity of beneficial owners of legal entity customers, subject to certain exclusions and exemptions. It will also provide guidance in monitoring suspicious activities and examine red flags that pose present and future challenges for regulated businesses.

New Customer Identification Program (CIP) rules on prepaid cards came out through interagency guidance to clarify that a bank's CIP should apply to the cardholders of general purpose prepaid cards that have the features of an account and are issued by a bank.
