The founding members of the Caribbean Regional Compliance Association (CRCA) are pleased to support the Seventh CRCA Conference in November of 2013
September, 2013 : The Caribbean Regional Compliance Association (CRCA) is pleased to announce that the 7th annual Regional Compliance Conference will be held in St Maarten – November 7 & 8 with a CAMs preparation workshop to be held on the 6th November.
A comprehensive, networking opportunity for professionals in the compliance, regulatory, and anti-money laundering sectors of the financial services industry, the conference will bring together compliance professionals throughout the region with a full international and regional line up of speakers, sponsors and delegates.
This year, back by popular demand, our keynote speaker is Avinash Persaud. Avinash wowed the CRCA audience in 2012 with his insightful and thought provoking session and feedback demanded his return. Several years before the financial crisis hit Avinash recognized the dangerous interaction between the “herd” behaviour of financial firms and new risk management practices and will speak to the application of this concept in the Caribbean region.
“As in previous years the conference committee has worked hard to put together a relevant and meaningful learning opportunity that is delivered by experts from a variety of fields” reported Carolyn Hanson, Co -Chair of the 2013 CRCA Conference Planning Committee, “We understand the ongoing challenge that continuing professional development presents Caribbean compliance professionals with so we have looked for a wide based programme including extensive accreditation from a variety of professional organizations”. Credits available include ICA CPD, CAMS and FIBA
The theme “Compliance – The Moving Target” sums up the feeling within the compliance environment at the moment where seemingly the only constant is change. Providing a mix of specialized compliance and AML subjects the conference includes such topics as the Cost of Enforcement (KYC Remediation), Balancing Disclosure with Confidentiality, extensive coverage on FATCA from 101 to working under an IGA, Correspondent Banking and Sanctions to name just a few.
CRCA member jurisdictions include Antigua & Barbuda, Bermuda, Bahamas, Barbados, British Virgin Islands (BVI), Cayman Islands, Curacao and Trinidad & Tobago with representation from Anguilla and Jamaica.
