Together with the Institute of International Bankers (IIB), we hosted our annual discussion of regulatory and enforcement trends in the year ahead for anti-money laundering (AML) and sanctions. Drawing on the experiences of our Financial Services, White Collar Defense & Investigations, Anti-Corruption, and Securities & Enforcement and Litigation attorneys, we provided insights on the steps that financial institutions can take to address AML and sanctions risks and navigate examinations and internal and government investigations.
