Description: Join us for a comprehensive and practical continuing education session designed specifically for Notaries. Veronica Armstrong will guide participants through what may be involved in an audit, including the types of records auditors may request, and best practices for maintaining complete, organized, and compliant documentation, particularly suspicious transaction reports and records.
Veronica will also explain how you can develop a strong, compliant risk assessment. Learn how to identify potential areas of liability, evaluate higher-risk client interactions, and implement safeguards that protect your practice and the public.
In addition, this session will touch on why identifying Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) and recognizing bribery, corruption, and other risk indicators are important, what red flags to watch for, and how to properly document and escalate concerns in accordance with regulatory requirements.
