Corporate Transparency Act explained
Listen to this podcast, featuring Meredith Beeston, expert consultant at FINTRAIL. Meredith unpacks details of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) and what it could mean for your business.
In January 2021, US Congress waded into the fight against money laundering, passing the Corporate Transparency Act. The new legislation means US businesses have to file beneficial ownership information to the Financial Crime Enforcement Network, or FinCEN, making it tougher for criminals to hide money in shell companies.
But what does the CTA mean for financial services businesses with customers based in the US or incorporated in the US?
+ What needs to be done to update KYB processes?
+ How do risk models need to change?
+ And what technology can be used to support these change?
This Podcast is hosted by PassFort CEO, Donald Gillies.
