BANKING LAW – BSA / AML / OFAC The financial services industry continues to rapidly evolve. Compliance requirements are growing in significant ways as regulatory changes and risk management issues become more complex and require greater resources and management attention.

The Bank Secrecy Act / Anti-Money Laundering / Office of Foreign Asset Control Practice Team is a multidisciplinary group composed of attorneys experienced in the laws and regulations affecting BSA / AML / OFAC compliance. Because of the depth of experience in these critical areas, we are well-suited to provide representation in matters relating to today’s challenging compliance environment, from federal and state anti-money laundering and know-your-customer statutes and regulations to the development and implementation of effective antimoney laundering programs.
