Overview
On October 31, 2016, Barack Ferrazzano Financial Institutions Group Regulatory Section Leader John Geiringer, joined by FDIC Senior Regional Attorney Richard Rowley, hosted a delegation of five prosecutors and officials from the Serbian Interior and Finance ministries to discuss the U.S. banking system and anti-money laundering efforts.
Coordinated by WorldChicago, this delegation was invited through the International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) of the U.S. Department of State. Alumni of this highly-selective program include 35 current and 300 former chiefs of state or heads of government. Meetings with IVLP participants are concrete opportunities to participate directly in international diplomacy and impact the global dialogue on a variety of pressing issues.
