On March 26, 2026, Davis Polk partner and Financial Institutions co-head David Portilla and counsel Kendall Howell will be among the speakers at the University of North Carolina School of Law’s 2026 Banking Institute. David will moderate the “Innovative Charters and Skinny Master Accounts” panel. Topics discussed will include the different types of innovative bank charters that have been applied for or conditionally approved, which stakeholders support the innovation and which raise concerns, and master accounts and skinny or payments accounts as they relate to such charters. 

Kendall will moderate the “AI, AML, and Digital Assets: Enhancing BSA/AML Compliance in an Evolving Financial Services Market” panel. Topics discussed will include how banks should evaluate and apply their BSA/AML sanctions controls to address crypto-related risks, and how AI and innovative technologies can supplement traditional risk controls to help banks maintain effective compliance frameworks.
