New York, NY, November 16, 2009 — Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently added the Basel II framework to its online library and resource center for Banks, Credit Unions and Money Services Businesses (MBSs) at www.bankersacademy.com/library.php.

The purpose of Basel II is to create an international standard that banking regulators can use when creating regulations about how much capital banks need to put aside to guard against the types of financial and operational risks banks face.
The Banker’s Academy Library contains vital and current industry information such as regulatory references, forms, articles and other important documents. The library currently includes the full Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), and will soon host Basel II, USA PATRIOT Act, Reg P, Reg CC, Check 21, Reg D, Reg E, Reg Z, Truth in Lending (TILA), HMDA, FCRA, FACT Act (FACTA), HMDA, CRA, the FATF’s Forty Recommendations on Money Laundering, the FATF’s Nine Special Recommendations on Terrorist Financing, The United Nations’ International Convention for the Suppression of the Financing of Terrorism and much more.
