Compounding FinCrime Concerns: Pros and Cons of Combining BSA and Fraud Departments

How can you approach BSA/AML with a fraud mindset? What are the advantages and disadvantages of combining BSA and Fraud departments? Join this webinar for resources and considerations as you develop a unified plan for combating financial crime across BSA/AML and fraud initiatives within your institution.
Join for a discussion on:
- Fraud resources – what are the latest trends?
- Key approaches to identifying and preventing fraud, including workflow and configuration suggestions
- To Crossover or Not To Crossover – BSA and Fraud Lines in FinCrime fighting
