FinCEN's CDD Rule - The New Fifth Prong of the AML

Recorded Session
60 Minutes

The FinCEN has issued substantial new AML requirements focused on a major expansion of Know Your Customer into what is now Customer Due Diligence, CDD. This webinar will present various aspects of the requirements.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

It goes far beyond knowledge of the Customer Legal Entity to the Beneficial Owner of that entity and its Controlling Persons. It is focused beyond the initial customer acceptance step, requiring updating and ongoing monitoring against baseline “normal” activity for the customer type. It is very unlikely that many banks already comply with these requirements.

  • Overview of the new 5th prong/pillar
  • Triggers that caused this expansion of regulations

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Five years ago FinCEN’s latest major AML requirements came into play, focused on a major expansion of Know Your Customer efforts into what is now Customer Due Diligence, CDD.  It goes far beyond knowledge of the Customer's Legal Entity to the Beneficial Owner of that entity and its Controlling Persons.  It is focused beyond the initial customer acceptance step, requiring updating and ongoing monitoring against baseline “normal” activity for the customer type.  Until CDD became a requirement not many banks already complied with these requirements.  Full compliance implementation is required on accounts opened on or after May 11, 2018.
