SEMINAR DESCRIPTION
Managing risk is the #1 priority for all financial institutions, starting at the new account desk. If a criminal cannot open a bank account, they cannot negotiate a stolen check, embezzle from their employer, or steal from your organization and community. Well-trained new account personnel and universal bankers who recognize and stop attempted fraudulent activity are the first lines of defense in protecting a financial institution from fraudsters. Unfortunately, new account personnel are often trained "on the job," which results in an environment of potential vulnerability and unnecessary losses.
Trust and business accounts continue to grow in popularity and complexity - LLCs owned by Revocable Trusts and businesses owned by other businesses… the need for ongoing compliance training is paramount to maintain diligence and update processes and procedures.
This full-day program is one of the country's most comprehensive seminars on opening deposit accounts. The session answers many of the complicated questions customers and employees ask. The 200+ page detailed manual, included in the registration and customized to your state law, has become an invaluable resource for banks across the state. These workshops are highly interactive. Come prepared to get your questions answered!
