Bankers Continue Their Education, Remain Compliant

Stand-alone BSA/AML conference returns on May 10–11!

Back again in 2023 as its own conference, the Wisconsin Bankers Association is excited to offer its BSA/AML Conference in person at the Chula Vista Resort in Wisconsin Dells this spring!

In order to maintain the credentials required for managing, auditing, or implementing the portion of their institution’s compliance function that relates to money laundering, terrorist financing, or national security, banks are required to provide ongoing training for those responsible for BSA and AML compliance.

The WBA BSA/AML Conference provides bankers with the opportunity to hear and interact with regulators — at both the state and federal functional regulatory agencies — and gain instruction in BSA/AML compliance issues. While the conference curriculum changes each year, bankers return year after year to ensure they remain up to date on issues, topics, and guidance related to their compliance responsibility.

The two-day event will cover topics including:

  • AML Software Identifications, & Proposals, Payments, and Compliance Update
  • SAR Trends and Updates
  • Keys to Completing the SAR Narrative
  • Elder/Vulnerable Adult Exploitation
  • AMLA Update
  • Beneficial Ownership Identification Reporting (BOIR)

In addition to the various networking opportunities WBA events are known for, attendees will receive two full days of instruction from speaker Mark Dever of ProBank Austin and Nick Bonnema of Wipfli LLP.

“In this rapidly changing BSA environment, attendees will get the latest status on a variety of topics and issues that are evolving, along with feedback and guidance from the examiners, and of course, the opportunity to network with their peers,” highlights Dever. “Attendees can make the most out of their attendance by coming armed with questions on BSA, and the willingness to actively participate in the various sessions.”

Those interested in attending the event on May 10–11 should visit wisbank.com/BSA-AML to learn more or to register.

Ensuring the Safety and Security of Wisconsin Communities

Dan PetersonBy Daniel J. Peterson

As technology continues to advance faster than ever before, the importance of staying up to date on the latest trends and best practices for the safety of both the bank and its customers is quickly becoming the number one concern for Wisconsin bankers.

As the last several years have shown, a growing number of consumers throughout the state rely on technology and online banking for their day-to-day needs. It is critical that, for continued success and relevance of our industry, bankers are aware of not only how best to serve our customers through offering modern banking amenities, but how to best protect our communities from increasingly more sophisticated — and prevalent — fraudsters.

For this purpose, in addition to ensuring that all Wisconsin banks remain a safe, secure place for finances and sensitive information, the Wisconsin Bankers Association (WBA) will once again host a combined Secur-I.T. & BSA/AML Conference. The conference specifically targets BSA/AML, operations, security, and technology banking professionals looking to remain educated on our ever-evolving industry.

This year’s annual conference will be held September 20 and 21 at Glacier Canyon Lodge in Wisconsin Dells and features a unique variety of speakers. From local professionals and WBA Associate Members to world-famous cyber security expert and ethical hacker Bryan Seely, WBA’s Secur-I.T. & BSA/AML Conference will assist banking teams in understanding how best to protect against hackers, what trends to watch for in money laundering, and so much more. This is an event you don’t want to miss!

By engaging in conferences such as WBA’s Secur-I.T. & BSA/AML Conference, bank leaders can ensure their staff is gaining the most relevant and up-to-date banking-related information from the most knowledgeable individuals in the industry. Along with over seven hours of presentations focused on the safety and security of our banks and customers, bankers will enjoy networking with professionals from across the state and meeting with exhibitors offering products and services that help community banks further advance their customer service capabilities.

Please visit wisbank.com/Secur-IT to register or for additional details.

Peterson is president and CEO of The Stephenson National Bank & Trust, Marinette, and the 2022–2023 WBA Chair.

See Into the Mind of a Cybercriminal

WBA’s Secur-I.T. & BSA/AML Conference returns in 2022

As cybersecurity and fraud continue to be rising topics of discussion throughout the banking industry, bankers are encouraged to stay informed on the latest trends experts are seeing and how regulations will continue to impact Wisconsin banks by attending WBA’s annual Secur-I.T. & BSA/AML Conference held in Wisconsin Dells.

The two-day conference — beginning September 20 and adjourning at noon on September 21 — draws over 125 BSA/AML, operations, security, and technology professionals from around the state for over seven hours of educational presentations and networking.

This year’s keynote session will feature Bryan Seely, a world-famous cyber security expert, ethical hacker, author, and former U.S. Marine. Seely became one of the most famous hackers in 2014 when he became the only person to ever wiretap the United States Secret Service and FBI. Before he was caught, he confessed to the two agencies that there was an issue that needed to
be fixed.

Unlike many hackers, Seely is passionate about fighting for consumers rights, privacy, and educating the public about how to stay safe in a constantly changing technological landscape. In this keynote session, Seely will highlight the different ways in which hackers think and the new, creative ways professionals must approach security in order to protect the most critical information of the business and customers.

In addition to this captivating keynote speaker, the Secur-I.T. & BSA/ AML Conference offers several breakout sessions and networking opportunities that will assist banking professionals from throughout Wisconsin in further developing their bank’s customer experiences, BSA/ AML program, security, and technology capabilities as the banking and technology industries continue to evolve.
