On October 3, 2018, the main federal regulators, along with FinCEN, released a statement regarding instances in which banks and credit unions may decide to enter into collaborative arrangements to share resources to manage their Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and anti-money laundering (AML) obligations more efficiently and effectively. While this guidance may not be beneficial for a majority of financial institutions, this may be beneficial for very small institutions with a low-risk profile and less-complex structures, or those institutions who are owned by the same organization.
