My bank is acquiring a financial institution in Ohio that has two offices located in the Columbus area and several more located in the very rural areas about an hour North of Columbus.

As this is a completely new market for us, I was wondering if anyone would be willing to share any type of information about customer demographics as it relates to security and BSA/AML. I know that there are areas in and around Columbus that are designated as HIDTA but was wondering also about MSB's and any requirements for state registration of MSB's.

As for the offices up North, they are in Amish country and my main concerns are with customer identification procedures and any difficulties or solutions that others have found.

If you would prefer, you can PM me with information. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
