Every month we host an interactive, “office hours” style webinar during which we answer all questions related to cannabis banking.

Amy is a subject-matter expert in cannabis banking and will be sharing her experience with assisting financial institutions in understanding control environments, areas of risk, and aiding in the development of CRB policies and procedures.
