Jacko Law Group, PC (“JLG”) published its monthly Legal Risk Management Tip (“Legal Tip”) this April.

Current AML regulations
Duties of investment advisers
Industry trends regarding AML for investment advisers
Anticipated trends and considerations
This Legal Tip explains that those advisers who currently do not employ a formal AML policy as part of their Policies and Procedures Manual should consider incorporating such a policy, or at the very least, draft policies to specifically address the OFAC program. Advisers already incorporating AML policies should review and routinely test their processes to ensure they are effective.
