  • This course will enable both in-house and outside counsel to expand their skills and be more valuable to their clients by covering the why, what, when, where and how of bank regulations. The bank regulatory environment has completely changed in the last few years and further changes are coming. You will learn about these changes from experts in the field. Lawyers who practice in finance, securities, lending, M&A, litigation, anti-financial crimes and regulatory areas need to increase their knowledge of this area to effectively advise clients.

    This basic course will cover the three lines of defense for regulatory matters – business units, compliance/legal and audit. It will cover the Volcker Rule, capital requirements (CCAR, DFAST), liquidity (Basel IV), Resolution Plans (“Living Wills”), Anti-Money Laundering (“AML”), Know Your Customer (“KYC”), Sanctions, Office of Foreign Asset Control (“OFAC”), Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), Committee on Foreign Interests in the US (“CFIUS”), data privacy rules and other important bank regulations. Bank trends in legal tech solutions for derivatives and legal contracts. Bank regulatory rules for initial coin offerings, blockchain and smart contracts will also be covered. There will be one ethics credit relating to compliance with bank regulations and how to structure deals and lending arrangements within the parameters of some of these new regulations.

    OnDemand: $189 for Members | $289 for Nonmembers

    Members who are Recent Law Graduates (not yet admitted), Newly Admitted Lawyers, In-House/Corporate Counsel, Judges (and their staff), or attorneys that practice within the Government, Academic or Not-for-Profit sectors attend this program for free.
