Deposit Accounts and Operations Bootcamp: Identifying and Documenting Depositors
- Tricia Engelhardt | Principal Attorney (Partner) | Aldrich & Bonnefin
- John Davis | Principal Attorney (Partner) | Aldrich & Bonnefin
- Financial institutions are expected to identify and document each new customer prior to establishing a deposit account. To properly identify new customers, institutions must establish policies and procedures to help their personnel address the various legal and compliance risks that arise when establishing new account relationships, such as compliance with the Bank Secrecy Act and CIP requirements, reducing fraud, and helping ensure the institution will be able to appropriately respond to various legal processes (such as levies, subpoenas, etc.). This bootcamp will provide an overview of best practices and regulatory requirements for identifying and documenting common types of depositors, including individuals and various types of business entities.
5:00 PM
