When it is necessary or desirable to perfect security interests in aircraft, engines, propellers or spare parts in the United States a lender must consider a multitude of issues.

We are looking to provide the Board of Directors with an annual report card on our BSA/AML program (with information such as how many CTRs; we filed how many SARs; and how many SARs were investigated and not filed etc.) Are there any templates out there for this type of report to give us a starting point?

Acts of workplace violence that stem from violence domestic relationships seem to be more common than ever before. We employ about 150 people and I know of two employees that are in abusive relationships. One of these employee's husbands has threatened to kill her and everyone she works with if she ever leaves him. How can people stay in these relationships? I know so little about this issue and I'm the credit union's Security Officer.
