The Compliance Coffee Break
The Compliance Coffee Break is the candid podcast for BSA officers, AML professionals, and compliance leaders navigating the collision of financial crime regulation and AI. Hosted by an AI-generated voice — by design — and grounded in 40 years of frontline expertise from Dominic Suszek, founder and CEO of Global RADAR, every episode unpacks what's actually changing in BSA, AML, KYC, sanctions screening, FinCEN priorities, and the AI agents now entering regulated workflows.
What you'll get in every episode:
- Plain-English breakdowns of FinCEN rulemaking, OCC bulletins, FDIC and NCUA guidance
- AI in compliance: when to deploy, how to govern, where to keep your hand on the hammer
- Real enforcement stories (TD Bank's three-billion-dollar guilty plea, and more)
- Examiner-room playbooks for KYC, SAR filing, model risk management, and third-party oversight
- The honest tension between throughput and rigor in a post-checklist effectiveness standard
- Concrete "this week, this month, this quarter" action items for compliance officers
Built for community banks, credit unions, MSBs, fintechs, broker-dealers, and any institution where compliance professionals have to make real judgment calls in 2026 and beyond.
