CRO Circle Dinner – AML risks: the dangerous path ahead

We are thrilled to announce that Carlo Lombardini will be our keynote:

Summary

FINMA is exerting increasing pressure on how supervised entities manage their AML risks. The regulator has set the bar quite high, and to satisfy FINMA, both management and the board of directors of banks must act carefully and diligently. Failure to do so can have severe consequences not only for a bank but also for its managers and employees. The information provided to FINMA and the regulator’s conclusions can be used by prosecutors in criminal investigations, creating a dangerous situation.

About CRO circle

The CRO Circle institutionalizes the need to debate thoughts and ideas with your C- and Board level colleagues informally. It helps you to identify risk topics that you didn’t think of yet. It provides you with very exclusive networking opportunities and surely new friendships. The “CRO Circle” targets the most senior risk managers, the leaders who are responsible to identify and manage the risk for a company comprehensively. A CRO Circle seat is available as a part of our Corporate Packages.
