Roadmap to Ethical Decision Making

Description

U.S. Department of Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) imposed a new reporting requirement that went into effect on January 1, 2024. Millions of businesses may have to file a Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) Report. In a surprise turn of events, the Federal District Court from the Northern District of Alabama ruled on March 1, 2024 in National Small Business United v. Yellen (“NSB”) that the CTA is unconstitutional. This course will discuss the CTA’s provisions and the court’s decision in NSB. Also covered will be future implications for business entities and steps to consider given the recent ruling.
