WEBINAR DETAILS
Opening
accounts for nonresident aliens (NRAs) and identifying the person with whom you
are doing business has always been challenging. Since the USA PATRIOT Act Customer
Identification Program (CIP) law passed, opening these accounts and obtaining
the required documentation and identification is trickier than ever. This is also a BSA exam "hot spot"
with the regulators because NRA accounts are considered high risk. What does the law say about identifying
nonresident aliens? What type of
identification is being used around the country to open accounts? What are the proper procedures for W-8
reporting? What role does the Office of
Foreign Assets and Control (OFAC) play in your new accounts procedures? If you are pondering these questions or other
NRA compliance issues, this session is a must.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This informative session
is designed for new accounts personnel, BSA staff, compliance staff, trainers,
branch operations personnel, and managers.
