Premier BSA/AML Gaming Conference Returns to Las Vegas

LAS VEGAS, June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The BSA-AML Compliance Group is thrilled to announce the return of the Annual BSA/AML Gaming Conference, the most respected and comprehensive anti-money laundering compliance event in the gaming industry. The 2025 conference will be held at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas from September 9–11, with a dedicated "Fundamentals Day" on Monday, September 8 for newer professionals or those seeking a refresher in core BSA/AML principles.

Headline Keynotes and Distinguished Guests Announced
This year's event features presentations from some of the most influential figures in financial crime enforcement and policy:

• Guy Ficco, Chief of IRS-Criminal Investigation (CI), who oversees a global agency of more than 3,200 employees and 2,100 special agents. In his keynote address, Chief Ficco will provide insights into the critical role of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) and Currency Transaction Reports (CTRs) in federal investigations. He will also highlight CI's role in recent, high-profile financial crime cases.
• Carole House, former Director for Cybersecurity and Secure Digital Innovation at the White House National Security Council and senior advisor at FinCEN, will deliver a keynote exploring the intersection of AML compliance, national security, and emerging technology. A leader in cybersecurity and digital asset policy, Ms. House will speak to the future of risk, regulation, and innovation.

For the first time ever, the 2025 conference will host two former Directors of the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) — the bureau of the U.S. Treasury responsible for enforcing the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA). They will share unique perspectives on how BSA policy has evolved over time and what the future holds for AML regulation for the gaming sector. Several other high-level government officials – state and federal, civil, regulatory, and criminal – will be announced in the near future.

The BSA/AML Gaming Conference continues to be the leading annual forum for compliance professionals in the gaming industry. Last year's event welcomed more than 550 attendees from 39 states, three foreign countries, dozens of tribes, and over 160 gaming entities, with overwhelmingly positive feedback about speaker access, practical insights, and cross-sector networking.

The conference will also feature in-depth studies of recent enforcement actions, emerging issues involving know-your-customer and source of funds, a presentation regarding data analysis and player risks, and new and unregulated gaming models. As in previous years, it will highlight on emerging risks, new illicit finance typologies, and actionable compliance solutions.

"Our goal has always been to bring together the best minds from government and industry to share real-world solutions," said James Dowling, Co-Founder of the BSA-AML Compliance Group and President and Managing Director of the Dowling Advisory Group. "With keynote speakers like Guy Ficco and Carole House, and the participation of former FinCEN Directors, this year's event will be our most impactful yet."
