What to Start Doing, and Stop Doing Now


Anyone building in the payment and digital asset space knows how tough it is to navigate regulations.

That is why we are hosting a roundtable Q&A event to offer brief insights and address questions related to compliance, deal risk shifting, and enforcement trends.


Join the Crowell & Moring team for an open room chat on enforcement trends and practical compliance solutions to keep companies out of trouble.


Moderator:

  • Crowell & Moring Partner Caroline Brown, former attorney-advisor at FinCEN (the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network) and the Treasury Department’s Office of General Counsel, Enforcement and Intelligence division

Speakers:

  • Crowell & Moring Partner Carlton Greene, former chief counsel at FinCEN (the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network), the U.S. AML regulator responsible for administering the Bank Secrecy Act (Washington, D.C.)
  • Crowell & Moring Partner Michelle Gitlitz, global head of the firm’s Blockchain and Digital Assets Practice and co-head of the firm’s Financial Services Practice (New York)

We invite you to pose your questions now (via the registration page) and during the live event on compliance strategy, enforcement trends, and deal risk shifting.
