American Bankers Association - Annual Convention - ABA 2026

The 2026 convention is at Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City, Utah.

The organizer lists event professionals and leaders as attendees.

The facts give little about the convention's own sessions or speakers, so the case rests on the organizer: the American Bankers Association runs a national meeting at the Salt Palace Convention Center, which tends to suit bank executives and trade-association regulars who want contact with peers from across the country. Compliance and fraud specialists would likely get more from the ABA AML and Fraud School, which is a dedicated skills program for BSA and fraud professionals, than from a general convention.

Attendees at national banking conventions usually wear business formal or business casual, with suits common for executives and sessions in a convention center, so a jacket for cool October air in Salt Lake City is sensible.
