New York—The Jewelers Vigilance Committee (JVC) and the Jewelers Board of Trade (JBT) will host a new seminar to inform jewelers of what they can expect when the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) reviews their anti-money-laundering (AML) programs.

The seminar, "Industry/Government Relations—Your Anti-Money Laundering Obligations," will take place at the JA New York show, Monday, July 30, from 8:30 a.m.-10 a.m.

Topics covered at the seminar will include: what jewelers can expect now that the IRS has a system in place to review if businesses' AML programs comply with the USA Patriot Act; what government regulators can learn from industry members; and what credit-analysis services are available to support jewelers' AML programs.

Cecilia Gardner, JVC president, chief executive officer and general council, will speak at the seminar and will also moderate a panel to include F. Kim Buggs, IRS compliance policy program analyst; Dione Kenyon, president of the JBT; and Gary Murray of New York High Risk Money Laundering and Related Financial Crimes Areas.

The JVC says attendance at this seminar is in compliance with jewelers' Patriot Act training obligations, and that the JVC's letter of attendance and training will be available to attendees.

The seminar is free and registration is not required, though space is limited. A light breakfast will be available.

For more information about the seminar, or for general information concerning legal-compliance information pertaining to the jewelry industry, visit the JVC's Web site, Jvclegal.org.
