The myths are back, and they've infiltrated every corner of your BSA/AML program. In this follow-up to our fan-favorite session, we're hunting down the misconceptions that distort examiner expectations, warp program decisions, and leave compliance teams fighting battles they don't need to fight. From regulatory misinterpretations to outdated assumptions about technology and AI, we're exposing the myths that have survived far too long and giving you the clarity to move forward with confidence.
A New Hope for your BSA program starts here:
Decode the Jedi texts — correct the most common misinterpretations of regulatory guidance shaping your program
These aren't the controls you're looking for — why legacy transaction monitoring setups miss more than they catch
Do or do not, there is no "we've always done it this way" — breaking free from program inertia before your next exam
The Force has always been with your fincrime program. It's time to stop letting bad intel lead it astray.
