The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) (Reg GG) focuses on denying commercial customers that operate online gambling entities access to bank accounts. The course concentrates on commercial account opening and the steps necessary to assess the risk of unlawful Internet gambling transactions being conducted through a commercial loan or deposit account. Other portions of the course outline requirements associated with blocking restricted transactions conducted with debit and credit cards, providing notice to commercial account holders, and crafting an action plan for banks that discover UIGEA violations. The law is implemented through Federal Reserve Regulation GG.
