FinCEN’s Acting Director Das gave an update to the House Financial Services Committee on implementation efforts in light of the Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Act of 2020. Of course, FinCEN has been very busy with Russia-related sanctions, which has slowed some of its progress on implementing the AML Act.
Proposed regulations were issued in December 2021 to implement the Corporate Transparency Act’s reporting requirements related to beneficial owners.
A proposed rule regarding access to the beneficial ownership information is planned for later this year, which will be followed by revisions to the Customer Due Diligence (CDD) requirements in light of these new reporting requirements.
There’s no time like the present to make sure your program is currently in a good place and to consider how these changes on the horizon may impact you! When it finally comes, you want to be ready.
