This Workbook may save you thousands of dollars! The Workbook guides you through each step of the PATRIOT Act independent review requirement. Each question is fully explained, and FinCEN guidance is also included. The format is designed to be acceptable to bank AML compliance departments as well as state and IRS examiners. Some MSBs' operations are very complex and require outside auditors to conduct testing. Yet even in those cases, by doing much of the audit work by yourself, you can significantly reduce the cost spent on outside help. Many MSBs have found that they do not need outside audit help at all and that the Workbook is all they need to maintain compliance and stay in the good graces of their bank.

Using the FFIEC Examination Manual to conduct an independent review is like using the owner's manual of a car to judge a driver's abilities. Wrong tool for the job! The Complete Audit Workbook ensures that audit professionals and BSA officers have the right tool to conduct the PATRIOT Act (Section 352) required independent review. The Workbook breaks down BSA/AML regulatory requirements into component parts that enable an auditor to judge whether all the i's and t's of a BSA compliance program are dotted and crossed. Guidance for each major category of questions (over 50 in all!) is included. Audit traps, --items seen only in confidential exit interviews-- are also included. The audience for this book is both BSA auditors and compliance officers. The latter can utilize the Workbook to design a comprehensive, sustainable AML program. The former can use this Workbook to check their firm's BSA program status and carry out their duty to keep senior management informed.

The Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) requires that designated financial institutions implement and maintain anti-money laundering (AML) programs. Tribal casinos have been designated as financial institutions under the BSA since 1996, and the BSA regulations issued by the Treasury Department in 31 C.F.R. 103.64 prescribe the minimum standards for those programs. All tribal governments conducting or sponsoring gaming activities - whether for one night out of the year or throughout the year, whether in their primary place of operation or at remote sites - must be aware of the federal requirements associated with the Bank Secrecy Act. This workbook will allow the casino compliance officer to conduct and write a formal risk assessment that can serve as the basis for the casino's AML program.
