NAFCU and the Compliance Guy will present a webcast today designed to help credit unions train their new employees, volunteers and others on BSA, OFAC and money laundering.  The webcast will provide a high-level overview of all relevant topics.  If you can't tune in this afternoon, the webcast will be available for purchase for six months following today's broadcast.  For more information, click on the webcast icon, which should be on the upper left portion of this blog.
