Banks and mortgage lenders, as well as other legitimate businesses, can be a means of laundering money obtained through crime. The Anti-Money Laundering Laws course focuses on laws and regulations that banks and mortgage lenders must follow to help combat both money laundering and terrorist financing.

The course provides background on money laundering and terrorism financing and explores lenders' obligations in regard to key laws. Laws and regulations discussed include Title 18 USC §§ 1956 and 1957, which criminalize money laundering; the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA, or sometimes BSA/AML) as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act; and FinCEN's final RMLO (Residential Mortgage Loan Originator) rule, which expanded mortgage lender obligations in regard to anti-money laundering activity. The course examines common red flags for mortgage lenders and lessons learned in BSA/AML enforcement. The course concludes with a discussion of the role of the regulatory agencies.

This is a single-family/residential course.
