In this episode, Kieran Beer talks to Daniel Stipano, a 30-year veteran of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, about the “Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020,” the most revolutionary piece of anti-financial crime legislation to emerge from Congress since the “USA PATRIOT Act.”
Now a partner with the law firm Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, Stipano details how the USA PATRIOT Act creates a national corporate ownership registry, new examination criteria for financial institutions and Bank Secrecy Act responsibilities for art and antiquities dealers as well what to expect from the regulation writing process necessary to flesh out the act over the next several years.
