During this webinar, learn practical strategies for spotting and addressing red flags associated with illicit activity.

We’ll focus on wire transfer fraud, given the higher risk associated with large transaction values, immediate settlement, and global reach. We will also cover emerging trends, such as the growing use of virtual currencies and digital assets in fraud schemes.

In this webinar Steven Ramirez, CEO at Beyond the Arc, will share real-world training scenarios to help you and your teams recognize and respond to potential threats.

Designed to benefit frontline and operations staff, key takeaways include:

• Learn practical strategies for spotting red flags and identifying suspicious transactions related to wire fraud.
• Help your teams recognize and respond to potential terrorist financing using real-world scenarios.
• Walk away with tips and tools to better protect your organization and customers, including The 5W’s for Strengthening Suspicious Activity Reports (SAR).

When financial institutions implement strong policies, controls, and training for BSA/AML, they deny bad actors access to the money and resources they need to carry out harmful activities and profit from their crimes.
