The No.1 reason cited for lowered compliance ratings by examiners is lack of adequate compliance training for appropriate personnel. The No.2 reason cited is outdated or inaccessible policies and procedures. Thorough training, testing and tracking, credit unions can demonstrate to the Examiners that their employees are performing their jobs in compliance with the BSA/AML and Office of Foreign Assets and Controls (OFAC) laws and regulations, greatly minimizing their credit union’s risk.
