2022 Enforcement Outlook Webinar Series - Managing AML Risk Under Heightened Scrutiny

A series of recent legislative and policy changes across administrations has made clear that anti-money laundering (AML) is – and is likely to remain – a key enforcement priority and an area of increasing risk for financial institutions and other companies operating in a wide range of industries. Most recently, the Biden Administration’s particular focus on AML compliance as a component of national security and anti-corruption enforcement, as well as the increased focus on the compliance function more generally has dramatically increased the scrutiny AML programs are likely to face and will need to withstand going forward.

Join our panel including Chief of the Money Laundering and Transnational Criminal Enterprises Unit at the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York Alex Wilson, Senior AML, Anti-Corruption and Privacy Officer and Associate General Counsel at Neuberger Berman Niketh Velamoor and McDermott White Collar Partner Ted Diskant for a special 360 degree assessment of current AML enforcement priorities, compliance concerns and best practices. The panel will discuss:

• Recent enforcement trends

• Compliance best practices

• Pending legislation and potential changes that might impact the compliance and enforcement landscape
