The
Assembly

What is The Assembly?

The Assembly is the new name for our global conference series. In 2024, The Assembly series includes our conferences in Hollywood, Europe, APAC, Australasia, LATAM, Las Vegas, MENA, Canada, Japan, the Caribbean, and our FinTech & Crypto event in Texas.

What is changing?

You’ll see our new branding on all of our conference communications, on-site at our conference venues, and across our virtual event platform. The Assembly will be brought to life with bright colors and imagery, representing the exciting, productive, and creative environment of our conferences.

What isn’t changing?

The ACAMS Conferences’ name and branding of each event will change, but the program will stay the same. You can expect the same quality anti-financial crime and anti-money laundering conference content that ACAMS is renowned for. This includes expert speakers, a diverse program, and dedicated networking time – all aimed at helping you broaden your horizons and sharpen your skillset.

Can I sponsor or exhibit at The Assembly?

Yes, we’re always delighted to hear from potential sponsors and exhibitors. Please fill out the form on this page and we will be in touch.

Are there any special offers available for The Assembly?

ACAMS members receive special prices at all our events. We also offer a special public sector price, Enterprise members, and groups of 3 or more are eligible for discounts on conference rates. Please contact your account manager or request Group Pricing here.

Can I change my ticket to an in-person one if I purchase a virtual ticket initially?

Yes. You can request a ticket swap to your modality of choice, and you will be invoiced or reimbursed for the difference. For changes in modality, the price applied will be the current rate on the day the request is made. Please contact us for full details.

What is your cancellation and refund policy?

All ACAMS event tickets are non-refundable. Ticket holders may request a ticket transfer to another person, colleague, or client, up until a certain date specific to each event.

What is your COVID-19 policy?

Ticket holders will only be entitled to a refund of their event pass if they are unable to attend the in-person event because they have been diagnosed with COVID-19, or if government-issued travel restrictions are in place during the event dates. If you are unable to attend because of the COVID-19 illness, you will be asked to provide proof of a positive diagnosis. If you have been potentially exposed to someone who is positive for COVID-19, you can request to transfer your in-person ticket to a virtual ticket, or to a future in-person event.

Government-issued travel restrictions include:

• The country/state that you live in closes its borders to travel
• The country/state you live in issues advice not to travel to the event location
• The country/state you live in has imposed an unavoidable quarantine on return from travel
• There is an unavoidable quarantine on arrival
• There is a further lockdown phase in the country/state you live in that prevents you from leaving your home except for essential requirements

COVID-19 refunds are not available for virtual events.

ACAMS will abide by local government and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines. Your conference pass may be subject to change to your choice of a virtual pass or the next in-person event. Seats will be allocated based on time of purchase. If you choose to transfer to virtual, the difference in pricing (if applicable) could be used as a credit towards a future ACAMS purchase. If the local governing body imposes a new restriction that prohibits ACAMS from holding an in-person event you will be able to transfer your pass to virtual or the next in-person event. Refunds will not be available.

Do ACAMS events have a health and safety plan?

ACAMS considers the health and safety of all those on site at our events as our top priority. We are committed to remaining reliably informed on COVID-19 as it relates to our in-person events, and we will share details to attendees in advance of each event taking place. In addition to following the CDC guidelines, we are working closely with state and local government, our hotel partners, and our official service providers to ensure the health, safety, and security of all our attendees and exhibitors.

Is there a venue safety plan?

Where applicable, venue-specific safety plans will be provided to attendees ahead of the event.

Will I earn ACAMS credits?

Attendees can earn ACAMS credits at all ACAMS events. To find out how many credits are on offer at a specific event, please visit the event’s homepage.

Will I receive a certificate of participation?

Yes. The certificate of participation will be sent to attendees’ email addresses within two weeks after the conference.

Can I sponsor The Assembly?
