CIP and Beneficial Owners for Deposit Accounts – ON-DEMAND WEBINARS

Recorded: December 1, 2020

Presented by: Ms. Natalie Straus, CRCM, VP and Senior Consultant, FORVIS

OVERVIEW

The establishment of deposit accounts requires consideration of some seriously important federal regulations. Some of our most important responsibilities come from two components of the Bank Secrecy Act: Customer Identification Procedures and Beneficial Ownership Requirements. Our institutions are expected to have procedures in place to satisfy these requirements when we open deposit accounts. That means that we need to have a solid understanding of our responsibilities under this regulation and how they will apply to specific account types.
