SUMMARY:AML Risks in Nonbank Sectors
DESCRIPTION:Event details\n\n\n\nThe fine art\, luxury goods\, insurance\, and real estate industries are drawing new attention from investors and collectors as well as from criminals and regulators. Criminals increasingly are using nonbank sectors to move illicit funds and sidestep traditional anti-money laundering (AML) controls. For financial services organizations that serve these clients\, the risk exposure is real. \n\n\n\nThis webinar will examine AML vulnerabilities in nonbank sectors such as art dealerships\, jewelry and precious metals\, insurance\, real estate\, and high-value goods. These industries often fall outside the scope of traditional regulatory scrutiny\, which creates blind spots that criminals exploit and requires compliance professionals to address evolving risk indicators\, enhanced due diligence needs\, and shifting regulatory expectations. \n\n\n\nJoin us for a walk-through of major case studies\, red flag typologies\, and enforcement takedowns that illustrate where risk is hiding in plain sight. The session will also highlight how prosecution trends can inform smarter risk assessments and what financial services organizations should do now to enhance their AML programs. Expect real-world insights\, cross-sector lessons\, and practical guidance designed to help you spot\, assess\, and act on risk. \n\n\n\nAfter attending this session\, you should be able to: \n\n\n\n\nIdentify AML red flags and typologies in art\, real estate\, precious metals\, and other nonbank sectors\n\n\n\nExplain how criminals exploit regulatory gaps to move illicit funds or evade sanctions\n\n\n\nAnalyze criminal case outcomes to apply relevant lessons to AML programs\n\n\n\nEvaluate risk indicators when onboarding or monitoring customers in high-value sectors\n\n\n\nApply investigative techniques and escalation protocols aligned with regulatory expectations\n\n\n\n\nContinuing professional education\n\n\n\nPrerequisites: None \n\n\n\nProgram level: Overview \n\n\n\nAdvance preparation: None \n\n\n\nDelivery method: Webinar (group internet based) \n\n\n\nField of study: Specialized knowledge \n\n\n\nThis session is recommended for 1.0 hour of CPE credit. \n\n\n\nNote: All participants MUST be logged into the webinar INDIVIDUALLY to receive CPE credit.

SUMMARY:New Nacha Rules\, New Risks: What Every Controller Must Do Now to Verify Supplier Bank Details
DESCRIPTION:The rules have changed\, and the clock is ticking. Nacha’s new requirements for risk-based bank account validation demand that businesses rethink how supplier accounts are verified before payments are released. Meanwhile\, BEC and fraudulent bank change requests continue to rise\, growing more sophisticated and harder to detect. If your onboarding and verification processes still rely on email\, PDFs\, or manual callbacks\, your organization is exposed. These rules are not optional; they require stronger controls\, modernized workflows\, and decisive action. Join our speakers as they break down what the new Nacha rules require\, how fraud is entering AP workflows\, and the practical steps controllers must take to stay compliant and protected. \n\n\n\n **CPE Eligible**  \n\n\n\nField of Study: Finance  \n\n\n\nLevel: Basic  \n\n\n\nPrerequisite: None  \n\n\n\nAdvance Preparation: None required  \n\n\n\nDelivery Method: Group Internet-Based  \n\n\n\nRecommended CPE Credit(s): 1  \n\n\n\nEvent Inquiries: For inquiries as well as complaints concerning this webinar\, you are welcome to send an e-mail message to neil@controllerscouncil.org \n\n\n\nPlease note that only those who attend the live webinar will have the opportunity to earn continuing professional education (CPE) credit in connection with this webinar.

SUMMARY:Third-party risk management: Navigating complexity in a volatile world
DESCRIPTION:Webcast overview\n\n\n\nEmerging risks are expanding in scope and severity across third-party ecosystems. Join KPMG leaders for a timely discussion on how organizations are reshaping Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) amid accelerating regulatory demands and cyber threats—and where the biggest execution gaps persist. Drawing on findings from The 2026 KPMG Global Third-Party Risk Management Survey \, our panel will translate the data into practical actions you can take now to strengthen resilience\, elevate confidence\, and modernize your TPRM operating model.  \n\n\n\nSpecifically\, our panel of global TPRM professionals will discuss: \n\n\n\n\nWhy regulatory compliance and cyber risk are now the primary drivers of TPRM strategy—and what that means for prioritization\, investment\, and reporting. \n\n\n\nHow integration with ERM is progressing: about half of the 851 organizations surveyed report “mostly integrated\,” but only one in five have achieved full integration—and how to close the gap. \n\n\n\nThe rise of managed services: four in five organizations outsource core TPRM activities\, yet only 5% use end to end models—plus decision criteria for right sourcing. \n\n\n\nWhere AI is delivering value today—and where it isn’t: more than half are exploring AI for TPRM\, but only one quarter rate it “very effective”; we’ll discuss how to avoid a patchwork of disconnected tools. \n\n\n\nWhy data quality is the differentiator: roughly one in five organizations report top tier data quality\, and these teams are significantly more confident in their TPRM decisions—learn practices to reach that bar. \n\n\n\n\nRead the all-new 2026 KPMG Global TPRM Survey here. \n\n\n\nContinuing education\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThere will be one continuing professional education (CPE) credit available to participants who participate in the live webcast and meet the eligibility requirements. The webcast will last approximately one hour. \n\n\n\nAfter registering for this event\, you will receive webcast log‑in instructions (or dial in for audio‑only participation). \n\n\n\nCPE credit is not available for viewing webcast replay. \n\n\n\nQuestions: If you have questions about this event\, please e-mail KPMG Events & Meetings and reference event code FVNCPZ7CRGN.
