The Law of Financial Privacy

Consumers are highly sensitive about maintaining their privacy these days, and they've communicated their concern to Congress. As a result, bankers and their legal counsel need to keep an eagle eye on the legislative and regulatory requirements regarding financial privacy — and the liability for violating those requirements.

One resource, The Law of Financial Privacy, can help you do that. This two-volume set covers Fair Credit Reporting Act, Financial Privacy Act, Bank Secrecy Act, and Internal Revenue Code requirements. Plus, you get discussions of state financial privacy laws, use of technology, and use and protection of confidential information.

Here's what makes this publication really unique:

• Every chapter includes compliance checklists that help you know you're on the right track.
• Summaries of court decisions give you a quick look at where you might be vulnerable.
• Sample forms and agency materials give you practical tools for making compliance with financial privacy laws easier.
• Regular updates mean your best reference source has the latest information, so you don't have to go looking for it elsewhere.
