Why Reputation Monitoring is Key to a Strong KYC Program

December 5, 2016, 10:00 AM PST

Presenters: Keith Barnett, Partner at Troutman Sanders LLP, and Jane Hennessy, Head of External Alliances at G2 Web Services

A high number of complaints may suggest your business customer is engaging in Unfair, Deceptive or Abusive Acts and Practices (UDAAP). Harmful businesses don’t disclose a poor or declining reputation, yet this can signal that your business customer is engaged in anti-consumer behavior. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is currently very focused on UDAAP, and is even targeting organizations that are not officially regulated by them. In addition, the Panama Papers leak is a recent example demonstrating how adverse media monitoring is an important tool to alert you about business customers that may be engaged in activities that don’t align to your risk profile.

Presenters: Deana Rich, President of Rich Consulting, and Dan Frechtling, Chief Product Officer for G2 Web Services

Are you a victim of transaction laundering? How do you know? What forms does it take? Culprits target unprepared acquirers and processors to commit fraud and brand damaging activity.

It is a growing threat to e-commerce and deserves commensurate attention by financial institutions.

This webinar series will identify specific types of transaction laundering, walk through case examples that serve as cautionary tales, and offer risk and compliance professionals best practices to keep their portfolios clean of fraudulent merchants.
