Regulatory Expectations for Compliance Are Evolving – Are You Keeping Up?

Mastering ever-changing laws and regulations is a challenge for all financial institutions, and it is especially so in today’s uncertain regulatory environment.  For over 40 years, institutions have successfully met the challenge by relying on the many benefits of a Bankers’ Compliance Group® (BCG) membership.  BCG members enjoy advisory services as well as access to educational resources, including all-day seminars, monthly briefing meetings, newsletters, webinars, and compliance manuals. 

Consultations with Counsel 

Get prompt and cost-effective answers to your compliance and legal questions as part of your membership!  Members may pose up to three questions each month by telephone or email to attorneys with expertise in all areas of banking, such as deposit operations, lending, CRA, BSA/AML, privacy, risk management, and corporate governance.  Our attorneys advise on all federal and California banking laws and regulations. 

Monthly Seminars 

Access to our monthly seminars is one of the most popular features of BCG membership.  Members may register their employees for each monthly seminar.  Seminar topics cover a full range of industry-related topics, including general banking operations, BSA/AML, legal processes, privacy, commercial and construction lending, and consumer and mortgage lending, among many others.  Seminars include live Q & As, and can be streamed from any remote location with internet access.  

Monthly Briefings and Newsletters 

Stay abreast of changes with monthly briefing meetings and newsletters.  BCG offers a briefing each month with live Q & As to keep you up to date on regulatory developments.  With each new briefing, BCG members also receive a detailed handout discussing the regulatory developments and their impact on financial institutions.  BCG also provides a comprehensive newsletter each month discussing the current industry developments that bankers need to know.  Members can also access archived briefings (with the accompanying handouts) and newsletters by logging into the BCG website. 

Member Discounts on BCG Webinars 

BCG webinars are an optional feature of BCG membership and are offered on a variety of topics.   Webinars are usually one and one half to two hours and have a narrower focus than the all-day BCG seminars.  BCG members receive a considerable discount on registration fees for both a live connection and on-demand access.   

Compliance Companion 

Compliance Companion® is a one-stop regulatory compliance resource for financial institutions.  Subscription to Compliance Companion is included in BCG membership, and entitles each member to a 10-concurrent-user license.  This online compilation of 19 leading compliance manuals takes the legalese out of federal and California laws and regulations, making it easier to understand and keep up with ongoing developments.  Compliance Companion can also be accessed from a mobile device and is fully searchable, making it faster and easier to access federal and California laws and regulations.
