LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Five years ago FinCEN’s latest major AML requirements came into play, focused on a major expansion of Know Your Customer efforts into what is now Customer Due Diligence, CDD. It goes far beyond knowledge of the Customer's Legal Entity to the Beneficial Owner of that entity and its Controlling Persons. It is focused beyond the initial customer acceptance step, requiring updating and ongoing monitoring against baseline “normal” activity for the customer type.
