Celebrating its 20th anniversary, the FBA BSA/AML Symposium will once again identify a series of new and ongoing challenges. Given the continuing headlines and enforcement actions, bank directors and management have a right to be very cautious. Today’s BSA/AML Compliance professional will need all the knowledge, experience and tools available to face the demands and get the job done. The Florida Bankers Association is proud to present this BSA/AML event that helps identify what’s new, what’s not, and what’s next in meeting the challenge.

How do you maintain your credentials for managing, auditing or implementing the portion of your institution’s compliance function that relates to money laundering, terrorist financing or even national security? This is a question you will have to answer during every future BSA/AML regulatory examination. Your answer will serve as the regulators’ first impression of you and your bank’s compliance efforts.


Your participation establishes your bank’s as well as your own commitment to staying abreast of the most dynamic and pervasive compliance responsibility your institution has. Every bank must provide ongoing training to those responsible for BSA and AML compliance. This school will give you that required training along with the opportunity to listen to and interact with regulators from both the state and federal regulatory agencies. It also allows you a unique opportunity to get some rare “how to” instruction in BSA/AML compliance issues.
