NAFA Webinar - Best Practices in Closing a Transaction

27 Apr 2021
11:30am - 12:30pm EDT

Event Details

Recent industry events have shown us how important it is to know your client and other parties to the transaction, and to partner with a strong closing team.  NAFA stands behind the industry, and sees this as an opportunity to discuss risks at closing to foster an environment to help prevent illicit activity.

In this webinar, panelists will discuss best practices for ensuring an escrow runs smoothly, ways to detect and prevent fraud in closing aircraft transactions, and how to comply with Know Your Customer (KYC) rules and regulations, not just at closing, but long after closing has occurred.

Attendees will also hear true stories of attempted fraud, the telltale signs that alerted the parties involved, and what they did to prevent it.  

Register now to learn more about these pressing issues currently impacting our industry.
