Workshop One - 8:30 to 12 Noon
The Risk-Based Approach: Tips for Maximizing Effectiveness
How is your risk management program working at a practical level? Does it cover the myriad of regulatory requirements specific to your reporting sector, business services, and span of operations?
This workshop will focus on a variety of risk management factors inherent to a sound program, including: differentiating and analyzing three levels of risk; the impacts of identity theft on risk analysis; assessing risk of offshore customers, identified risk locations and groups; reducing risks in identified danger zones, such as beneficial ownership, cheque-cashing businesses, mortgage loans, and correspondent banking; managing possible risk within your workforce; and setting up appropriate systems for monitoring high-risk accounts.
Workshop Two - 1:00 to 4:30 PM
Reviewing the Fundamentals in an Effective AML/CTF Compliance Regime
For those wanting a comprehensive refresher in the development and maintenance of an effective Compliance Regime, this workshop will provide you with a solid footing in Canada's regulatory requirements.
Marissa Ting-A-Kee, a senior compliance manager with Invesco Trimark, will guide workshop participants through the key elements and objectives of an effective program, including: effectiveness parameters; customizing the program to your firm's operations; comprehensive risk assessment; the roles of your company board, committees, and management; and making comparisons with industry best practices. Hands on learning is a primary focus for the workshop and delegates will leave with lessons learned and practices confirmed.
