SUMMARY:Modernization of US AML/CFT Laws and Regulations - Impact on Financial Institutions outside the USA
DESCRIPTION:Overview: \n\n\n\nOn January 1\, 2021\, the US Congress passed the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020 (AMLA) as part of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021. AMLA includes substantial reforms to US anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CFT) laws since the Banking Secrecy Act of 1970 and the USA Patriot Act of 2001. These reforms will have impact not only on US financial institutions\, but also on foreign financial institutions which should be aware of the recent developments that complements the enforcement activity involving US sanctions/embargoes\, export controls\, and anti-corruption and anti-fraud laws. Non-US banks\, engaged in business with US banks through correspondent relationships\, should be familiar with the AMLA provisions that may apply to their activities. On the other hand\, the US continues its fight against serious human rights abuses and corruption through the Global Magnitsky Act\, by imposing financial sanctions and visa restrictions on persons determined to be involved in these acts anywhere in the world. This Act has also implications on foreign financial institutions. So\, the aim of this webinar is to provide the attendees with an overview of the above along with practical insights and examples to implement at their bank. \n\n\n\nOutline: \n\n\n\nThe US Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA) of 2020 \n\n\n\n\nModernization and Reforms of AML/CFT Laws and Regulations\nMajor Changes to the AML/CFT Landscape\nBeneficial Ownership Reporting\nEnhanced AML Whistleblower Program\nExpanded Subpoena PowerModernized Regime and Enhanced ResourcesIncreased Penalties for AML ViolationsSAR Sharing with Foreign Affiliates\nNational AML Priorities\nCongressional ReportingImpact on Foreign Financial InstitutionsUpdate of AML/CFT Policy and Procedures\n\n\n\n\n\nDownload Brochure\n\n\n\nDownload Registration Form\n\n\n\n\n\nDownload Presentation – Day 1\n\n\n\nDownload Presentation – Day 2\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n                    \n                        \n                        \n                            \n                \n                    \n\n        \n        Location: Sheraton Cairo Hotel – Egypt    \n\n        \n                    \n                    \n\n        \n        Date: November 25 -26\, 2026    \n\n        \n                    \n                    \n\n        \n        Time: 9:00 AM till 3:00 PM    \n\n        \n                    \n                \n                        \n        \n                        \n                        \n                        \n                    \n\n        \n        \n\n\nOverview \n\n\nThe Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) is a joint initiative of five private sector organizations dedicated to providing thought leadership through the development of frameworks and guidance on enterprise risk management\, internal control\, and fraud deterrence. \nInternal audit is being asked to\nsee further\, respond faster and speak with greater authority. Assurance remains fundamental.\nBut in a banking environment increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence\,\ndigital dependencies\, sophisticated fraud\, cyber risk\, regulatory expectations\nand external volatility\, assurance alone is no longer enough. Boards and senior\nmanagement increasingly need internal audit to identify where vulnerabilities\nare developing\, assess whether resilience is real or assumed\, and provide an\nindependent perspective on risks whose speed and complexity are challenging\ntraditional approaches to oversight. This places the Chief Audit\nExecutive at the centre of a significant shift. The question is no longer\nsimply whether internal audit is fulfilling its mandate. It is whether that\nmandate\, its capabilities and its relationship with the boardroom are keeping\npace with the environment in which financial institutions now operate. Against this backdrop\, The\nInternal Audit Forum 2026\, held under the theme “Beyond Assurance: The Next\nAudit Agenda for AI\, Digital Risk\, Resilience and the Future of the CAE\,” will\nbring together senior leaders and professionals from internal audit\, risk\,\ngovernance\, technology and regulatory functions to examine the priorities that\nare reshaping the audit agenda across banks and financial institutions. Over two days\, the Forum will\naddress some of the most consequential questions facing the profession. What\nshould boards expect from their CAEs today? Is internal audit providing\nsufficient foresight? How should audit approach AI when it is simultaneously\ntransforming the bank and the audit function itself? Where does operational\nresilience become most vulnerable across cyber\, cloud and third-party\necosystems? How should institutions respond to deepfakes\, digital fraud\,\ninsider threats and AI-enabled attacks? And as digital identity and eKYC\ncontinue to reshape banking\, how must assurance evolve with them? The agenda extends beyond technology.\nIt will examine governance and ethics\, remuneration risk\, financial resilience\nin volatile conditions\, environmental and social risk within the credit\nlifecycle\, external dependencies beyond traditional outsourcing\, and the impact\nof wider risk developments on the audit universe. It will also look ahead to\nthe decisions CAEs must make as they prepare their 2027 audit plans and build\nthe teams\, skills and judgement that the audit function of 2030 will demand. The Forum is designed not merely\nto examine individual risks\, but to connect them. AI\, cyber risk\, governance\,\nresilience\, third parties\, regulation and talent increasingly intersect\,\nrequiring audit leaders to look beyond traditional boundaries and assess the\ninstitution as a whole. For CAEs and the professionals\nworking alongside them\, the strategic challenge is clear: to preserve the\nindependence and rigour that define internal audit while ensuring that the\nfunction remains relevant to the risks\, technologies and decisions shaping the\nfuture of banking. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n The Internal Audit Forum 2026\nprovides the senior-level platform for that conversation.
