Although financial institutions have been managing BSA operations per the regulation requirements, the change in focus to BSA audits has been coming increasingly important. Regulators look to the Bank for assurance and evidence that BSA operations are being appropriately audited to ensure that BSA efforts are appropriately implemented and overseen.
This session highlights BSA audit best practices that are being acknowledged and recognized by regulators and examiners. In this webinar, we will discuss the areas that regulators and examiners are primarily focusing on in regards to BSA audits. The areas of focus outlined in this webinar are based on best industry practices and supervisory experience.
