2024 ACAMS The Assembly Hollywood Conference

The Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020 (AMLA) and subsequent amendments created a new FinCEN Whistleblower Program specifically to report potential Bank Secrecy Act, sanctions, and money laundering violations. Today, the whistleblower provisions are an important consideration as part of an institution’s BSA/AML and sanctions compliance.

Join Crowell partner Anand Sithian for an insightful panel at the 2024 Association of Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists (ACAMS) Assembly Hollywood Conference, where the panel will discuss this new program, FinCEN’s new Office of the Whistleblower, and how institutions can assess the adequacy of their internal reporting mechanisms to further ensure regulatory compliance. 

The panel will be moderated by Kelly Cooper, CAMS, Vice President, Global Financial Crimes Compliance, JPMorgan Chase & Co., and will include fellow panelist Matthew Haslinger, Executive Vice President, Chief BSA/AML/OFAC Officer, M&T Bank.
