Join Baker Tilly and legacy Moss Adams for a CPE-eligible webinar on Jan. 20 for actionable insights on regulatory changes, emerging risks, M&A trends and fintech innovations to guide your bank’s 2026 strategy.
As financial institutions navigate regulatory shifts, emerging risks and evolving market dynamics, staying informed is critical. 2025 brought major changes to the industry, including the GENIUS Act, the One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (FDICIA) Final Rule; while merger and acquisition (M&A) activity continued to accelerate, financial crimes risks grew more complex and new threats emerged.

In just two hours, we’ll cover the hottest topics shaping the industry.
