I use the same BSA training it seems every year. Does anyone have one that they would share with me?

I'm in the same boat. We've done the ABA training and would like something different.

Looking for my sanity
Have you looked at the BSA training on the BOL tools? It's really good, one of the long time threads posters created it. I've taken it and updated it to fit my FI. It's a great place to start and includes specialized training for each area. Here's the link.

There is a video in the FDIC Directors Resource Center. Its primary attributes are that 1) the content is good and 2) it's free. It's presented at the basic level and would serve as the "core" training offered to all employees before you gave them training on their individual responsibilities.

I'd be happy to share mine if you PM me. Again, I won't take full credit as I started with the ones on the link and made some changes from there.

Thank you! Those trainings are mine from years ago & I have since then updated them. A lot of my stuff is bank specific - but if you PM me your email - I could send something cleaned up a bit.

I've since added the snippet from Breaking Bad on money laundering. The kids love it. https://youtu.be/ez6xH-su2xI

Have you considered using FDIC or another regulator's enforcement action(s) as a training tool? It's not instant like purchased ones but it can be interesting. We used one last year that had several newspaper reports as well for the back story. Others' oops can be excellent reference points for the reason we have the requirements and procedures in place.

I do, I started with what WonderWoman created and I've updated over the years to customize for my bank and change it up a bit each year. If you look at the training linked above it has a slide wiht the BSA penalties list. I update that annually (thanks BOL) as well as include OFAC enforcement and other news stories I collect throughout the year. I just did BSA training this morning and I used the Dennis Hasert story, the Bank of Mingo, the Rabobank story recently in Bloomberg, the IRS seizures for structuring last year (the Iowa widow, convenience store owner & Maryland dairy farm owner). I also mention the Chase Bank loan officer that disclosed a SAR And I usually mention Eliot Spitzer. I use all of these examples in my Board training as well. My goal is to scare the carp out of them!

Some of my people didn't believe Mingo was for real. It's getting harder to find BSA enforcement actions that are systematic failures.

Can anyone provide more examples of lending-related suspicious activity? I reviewed the document at the link that was posted up-thread, but I'd love to see more (I don't have a Lending background, but will need to train lenders this year).

Besides the Bank of Mingo, here's one I use because it involves a SAR disclosure by a Loan Officer.
