Webinar Details

Think about all that time you are spending on CTRs dealing with "common" issues. What if we can alleviate those concerns and help you build a reference library? That's what we are going to do during this training.

CTRs are required to be filed out by financial institutions (other industries too!) for any type of transaction conducted over $10,000. To determine if a CTR is required, is the simple part. Filing out the form requires you to have certain knowledge of your customer. Most of this information was obtained during the onboarding process. This is one part of the equation; The next part is understanding the financial transaction that occurred. That means knowing the conductor, where the money was deposited, whether an armored car was involved and a lot more. We will discuss this and more during the webinar and, other common issues that occur and ways to deal with them.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

Under the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), there are reporting obligations for financial institutions doing business in the US. A currency transaction report is one of those obligations. A CTR must be filled out whenever a customer conducts a currency transaction over $10,000. There are some exemptions which we will go over as well. Remember with CTRs, it is a form we file to help prevent money laundering,
 
We are going to work through a CTR, address common issues, build our reference library and go over some real-life examples.
