Speaking Engagement
October 19, 2023
Partner Rich Weber recently hosted a Financial Crimes Share Forum on October 19, 2023 in Winston’s New York office. This event brought together industry experts, thought leaders, and financial crime professionals to engage in discussions about current trends in Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), and other important financial crime enforcement hot topics.
This event featured Jim Lee, Chief, Internal Revenue Service – Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI) who discussed IRS-CI’s important work in the AML and BSA arenas, and how financial crime data from financial institutions has been valuable in the investigation and enforcement of financial crime. It also marks the debut of a series of forthcoming forums on the topic of financial crime enforcement.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Law enforcement is extremely active reviewing BSA reports filed by financial institutions
- IRS-CI is one of the leading federal agencies investigating financial crimes and focusing on AML/BSA violations
- Public-private sector partnerships are incredibly important and we need to ensure that law enforcement, the banks, and the regulators are working together to fight financial crime and keep our financial system safe from criminals
