AML/BSA are essential pillars of a safe and sound financial services industry. These regulatory frameworks play a crucial role in detecting, preventing, and reporting illicit financial activity, thereby protecting credit unions and their members from serving as conduits for money laundering, terrorist financing, and other financial crimes.
For NASCUS members, maintaining robust AML/BSA programs not only ensures compliance with federal and state regulations but also safeguards institutional integrity and public trust.
Our goal is to help you foster peer-to-peer consultation and create a broader support network. The AML Roundtable empowers credit union professionals to stay informed, navigate evolving risks, and enhance the effectiveness of their AML and anti-financial crime strategies.
Additional resources include:
NASCUS events, such as the 2025 BSA Certification School, in partnership with America’s Credit Unions
Committee participation on the NASCUS Anti-Money Laundering/Anti-Financial Crimes Roundtable (AML Roundtable), a dedicated forum for AML/AFC professionals to regularly connect, collaborate, and share insights on complex compliance challenges.
