AMLA considerations and suspicious activity

Real estate money laundering and elder financial exploitation
Learn about some of the oldest and most common forms of money laundering and fraud: real estate money laundering and elder financial exploitation. Read FinCEN guidance on these topics and set up your AML/CFT and fraud programs for success.
Human trafficking red flags, navigating the U.S.-Mexico border, and guidance regarding the fentanyl epidemic
These chapters educate staff on how current events at the U.S. border may impact their AML/CFT responsibilities. Learn regulator expectations for financial institutions in areas affected by these complex issues and how to prevent financial crimes associated with them.
Beneficial ownership rules and OFAC compliance
Financial institutions act as the front-line defense and exercise preventative measures on behalf of the U.S. government. Additionally, many companies are required to begin reporting to the U.S. government information about beneficial ownership or who ultimately owns or controls them. Learn how these policy rules must be accounted for in an effective AML/CFT program.
