ViClarity Townhall - SARs & CTRs: Let's Work Through It!
— Virtual
SARs and CTRs are essential to an effective BSA program — but knowing when to file, what to include, and how to get the details right can be challenging. And when reporting errors can lead to examiner criticism, there’s little room for guesswork.
So, let’s roll up our sleeves and work through it together. Join ViClarity Compliance Specialists Farren Home-Lovell and Tyler Draffan for an interactive, scenario-based workshop designed to take BSA reporting out of the textbook and into the real world.
Forget the typical “sit back and listen” webinar. You’ll work through realistic scenarios, test your knowledge, compare approaches, and discuss what examiners are looking for.
We’ll tackle the questions BSA professionals face every day—including:
* Does this activity actually warrant a SAR?
* What makes a SAR narrative clear, complete, and useful?
* When is a CTR required — and what information needs to be captured?
* What are the most common reporting mistakes and examiner concerns?
* How can your credit union improve consistency and documentation?
This workshop is designed to give you practical, immediately usable tools and insight to strengthen your credit union’s BSA reporting processes.
Whether you’re new to BSA reporting or have been filing SARs and CTRs for years, you’ll have opportunities to sharpen your skills and learn from real-world examples. Bring your questions. Bring your scenarios. Come ready to participate!
