CLIENT INFORMATION FORM Client Name: ABC Tech Corp Client I.D. Number: 08125 Name: ABC Tech Corp Registered Address: Mumbai, India Work Address: Mumbai. India Cell Phone: ***"- Alt Phone:
Email: ********
Client Profile Information:
Sector: Financial
Engaged in business from (date): 02 Jan 2020
Sub-sector: Software-Cryptocurrency Exchange
Expected Annual Transaction Amount: 125.000 USD
Payment Nature: Transfer received from client's fund
Received from: Clients
Received for: Sale of digital assets
The client identified themselves as "Cryptocurrency Exchange" Client has submitted the limited liability partnership deed. However, the bank's auditing team is unable to identify the client's exact business profile as the cryptocurrency exchange specified by the client as their major business awaits clearance from the country's regulator. The client has submitted documents/communications exchanged with the regulator and has cited the lack of governing laws in the country of their operation as the reason for the delay.
Investigators determine the ultimate beneficial owner of ABC Tech Corp is a high-net-worth client. The client owns a real estate agency left to her when her spouse died. The spouse provided seed capital for ABC Tech Corp through a direct 1,000.000 Great British Pound (GBP) deposit.
What additional information would trigger filing a SAR/STR?

  • A. The client's spouse's source of wealth was a salary of 250,000 GBP per annum for the past 4 years and rental of properties of 150,000 GBP per annum for the past 6 years.
  • B. The client's current net asset value is 8 million GBP, of which 7.5 million GBP was derived from the inheritance.
  • C. An open-source search revealed that the client's spouse was a PEP.
  • D. The funds for the seed capital were in the form of 50 cashier's checks of 10,000 GBP each and 50 money orders of 10,000 GBP.

正解:D

解説:
Explanation
The additional information that would trigger filing a SAR/STR is the fact that the funds for the seed capital were in the form of 50 cashier's checks of 10,000 GBP each and 50 money orders of 10,000 GBP. This is because this indicates a possible attempt to avoid the reporting threshold of 10,000 GBP for cash transactions, which is a common money laundering technique known as structuring or smurfing12. The other options are not necessarily suspicious, as they do not involve cash transactions or indicate any illicit source of funds. The fact that the client's spouse was a PEP does not automatically make the transaction suspicious unless there are other red flags or risk factors associated with the PEP34 References: 1: Money Laundering Techniques 2: Structuring 3: Politically exposed person 4: PEP Definition

This is because this pattern may suggest that the individual is preparing to travel to a conflict zone and purchase equipment or supplies for terrorist activities. According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, some of the indicators of foreign terrorist fighters include1:
Sudden or increased financial activity, such as cash withdrawals, transfers, or deposits, especially in large amounts or involving foreign currency or locations.

質問 # 28
An analyst reviews an alert for high volume Automated Clearing House (ACH) activity in an account. The analyst's initial research finds the account is for a commercial daycare account that receives high volumes of large government-funded ACH transactions to support the programs. The account activity consists of checks (cheques) made payable to individual names in varying dollar amounts. One check indicates rent to another business.
An Internet search finds that the daycare company owner has previous government-issued violations for safety and classroom size needs, such as not having enough chairs and tables per enrollee. These violations were issued to a different daycare name.
Simultaneous to this investigation, another analyst sends an email about negative news articles referencing local child/adult daycare companies misusing governmental grants. This prompts the financial institution (Fl) to search all businesses for names containing daycare' or 'care1. Text searches return a number of facilities as customers at the Fl and detects that three of these businesses have a similar transaction flow of high volume government ACH funding with little to no daycare expenses.
During the investigation, it was determined that some of the checks were issued to a mother-in-law of a PEP and deposited into her account with the Fl. This customer was not found on the Fl's PEP list How should the investigator proceed in this situation"? (Select Two.)

  • A. Reter the newly identified customers account for closure due to the high risk associated with the potential PEP.
  • B. File a SAR/STR due to the potential involvement of a PEP.
  • C. Conduct the investigation as usual, since the activity in question is not directly connected to the PEP.
  • D. Send a referral to Sanctions/List Screening, or similar department/responsible individual, to ensure that the customer due diligence information is up to date.
  • E. Use this case as an example to train employees to recognize potential PEPs during their investigation process.

正解:C、D

解説:
Explanation
The investigator should proceed in this situation by conducting the investigation as usual, since the activity in question is not directly connected to the PEP (A) and sending a referral to Sanctions/List Screening, or similar department/responsible individual, to ensure that the customer due diligence information is up to date (D).
These actions are appropriate and prudent, as they allow the investigator to continue their analysis of the suspicious activity without being biased by the potential PEP status of the customer's relative, and they ensure that the FI has accurate and current information about its customers and their associates. According to the ACAMS Advanced Financial Crimes Investigations Certification Study Guide1, "the FI should conduct enhanced due diligence on all parties involved in the investigation, including checking various sources of information, such as watch lists, sanctions lists, negative news, and official registries" (p. 24). The FI should also "update the customer profile with any new information obtained during the investigation" (p. 25).
The other options are not correct. The investigator should not refer the newly identified customer's account for closure due to the high risk associated with the potential PEP (B), as this could be premature or disproportionate, as well as potentially discriminatory or illegal. The investigator should not file a SAR/STR due to the potential involvement of a PEP (E), as this could also be premature or unnecessary, as well as potentially misleading or inaccurate. The investigator should not use this case as an example to train employees to recognize potential PEPs during their investigation process , as this could violate confidentiality or data protection laws, as well as compromise the investigation or alert the customer or their relative of the suspicion.

質問 # 29
In a SAR/STR narrative concerning Individual A. which statement indicates a product of analysis rather than a fact or judgement?

  • A. Individual A is a college student and employed part-time at a car wash.
  • B. Individual A was the originator of nine wires totaling 225.000 USD between January and March 2020.
  • C. Individual A made structured cash deposits possibly to circumvent regulatory reporting requirements
  • D. Individual A made structured cash deposits on almost consecutive days.

正解:C

解説:
Explanation
A product of analysis is a conclusion or inference that is derived from facts or judgments, using analytical techniques or tools. Option B is a product of analysis because it implies that the investigator has used a tool or technique, such as a threshold analysis, to identify a pattern of structured cash deposits that may indicate an attempt to evade reporting requirements. The other options are facts or judgments that can be verified by evidence or observation.

質問 # 30
Law enforcement (LE) suspects human trafficking to occur during a major sporting event LE officers asked several financial institutions (FIs) to monitor financial transactions occurring before, during, and after the event.
An investigator identified a pattern linked to a business. The business' account received multiple even dollar deposits between midnight and 4:00 AM. They occurred each day for several days prior to the date of the sporting event. Also, large cash deposits, typically between 2,000 USD and 3,000 USD. made by a person to the business' account occurred in many branches in the days after the sports event.
There was little information about the company. The company did not have any history of employee payroll expenses or paying taxes. Expenses from the business account included air travel and hotel expenses. Searches about the person making cash deposits showed little. An online social media platform webpage with the individual's name showed ads for dates1' and "companionship." The Fl wants to create an automated alert for human trafficking money laundering after this investigation.
Which activity type should they target?

  • A. Payments made to multiple hotels in the same city
  • B. Deposits made within days of major sporting events
  • C. Multiple deposits between midnight and 4:00 AM
  • D. Payments made for virtual currency

正解:C

解説:
Explanation
The activity type that the FI should target for creating an automated alert for human trafficking money laundering is multiple deposits between midnight and 4:00 AM (B). This is because this pattern is consistent with the indicators of human trafficking identified by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and the Egmont Group1, which include:
Frequent cash deposits, often in round amounts, outside of normal business hours Deposits made at different branches or ATMs in various locations Lack of information about the nature and purpose of the business Involvement in online platforms that advertise sexual services Expenses related to travel and accommodation The other options are not as relevant or specific as option B. Payments made to multiple hotels in the same city (A) could be a legitimate business expense or a sign of other types of money laundering, such as tax evasion or fraud. Deposits made within days of major sporting events could also be explained by other factors, such as increased tourism or gambling. Payments made for virtual currency (D) are not directly related to human trafficking, although they could be used to facilitate money laundering in general.

質問 # 31
During transaction monitoring. Bank A learns that one of its customers. Med Supplies 123, is attempting to make a payment via wire totaling 382.500 USD to PPE Business LLC located in Mexico to purchase a large order of personal protective equipment. specifically surgical masks and face shields. Upon further verification.
Bank A decides to escalate and refers the case to investigators.
Bank A notes that days prior to the above transaction, the same customer went to a Bank A location to wire
1,215,280 USD to Breath Well LTD located in Singapore. Breath Well was acting as an intermediary to purchase both 3-ply surgical masks and face shields from China. Bank A decided not to complete the transaction due to concerns with the involved supplier in China. Moreover, the customer is attempting to send a third wire in the amount of 350,000 USD for the purchase of these items, this time using a different vendor in China. The investigator must determine the next steps in the investigation and what actions, if any. should be taken against relevant parties.
The investigator is gathering more information to determine if a SAR/STR filing is needed. Which steps are the correct ways of collecting the additional information? (Select Two.)

  • A. Reach out to the customer and ask for supporting documentation for the conducted wires to avoid SAR/STR filing.
  • B. Issue a USA PATRIOT ACT Section 314(b) request to participating financial institutions advising that information is needed to decide if the activity is suspicious.
  • C. Use available documentation received from law enforcement (e.g.. grand jury subpoena) as red flags in SAR/STR filing.
  • D. Conduct open-source research to determine if the customer and involved counterparties are in the same business field.
  • E. Reach out to the relationship manager asking if more up-to-date customer due diligence information can be collected on the customer.

正解:D、E

解説:
Explanation
The correct answer is A and C because these indicators suggest that the customer is using fraudulent documents and misrepresenting the goods to conceal the illicit nature of the transactions. Fentanyl traffickers often use front companies and falsified invoices to disguise their shipments as legitimate products, such as medical supplies or chemicals. Reviewing the invoices and transportation documents, as well as the FDA product certifications, can help to identify discrepancies or anomalies that indicate fraud or deception.

質問 # 33
Law enforcement (LE) suspects human trafficking to occur during a major sporting event. LE officers asked several financial institutions (FIs) to monitor financial transactions occurring before, during, and after the event.
An investigator identified a pattern linked to a business. The business' account received multiple even dollar deposits between midnight and 4:00 AM. They occurred each day for several days prior to the date of the sporting event. Also, large cash deposits, typically between 2,000 USD and 3,000 USD. made by a person to the business' account occurred in many branches in the days after the sports event.
There was little information about the company. The company did not have any history of employee payroll expenses or paying taxes. Expenses from the business account included air travel and hotel expenses. Searches about the person making cash deposits showed little. An online social media platform webpage with the individual's name showed ads for dates" and "companionship." The Fl receives a keep open' letter from LE for the identified account and agrees to keep the account open.
What is the Fl required to do?

  • A. Ensure that the request includes an end date.
  • B. Notify LE immediately after new transactions.
  • C. Contact the client for information relating to the account.
  • D. Stop filing SAR/STR reports on the account and/or customer.

正解:A

解説:
Explanation
The FI is required to ensure that the request includes an end date when it receives a keep open letter from LE for the identified account. This is because the FI has to balance its legal obligations to cooperate with LE and to protect its customers' privacy and rights. According to the ACAMS Advanced Financial Crimes Investigations Certification Study Guide1, "the FI should request a written confirmation from LE that includes a specific end date for the request, as well as a point of contact for any questions or concerns" (p. 35). The FI should also document the request and its compliance with it, and continue to monitor the account for any suspicious activity.
The other options are not correct. The FI should not contact the client for information relating to the account (A), as this could compromise the LE investigation or alert the client of the suspicion. The FI should not stop filing SAR/STR reports on the account and/or customer (B), as this could violate its regulatory obligations and expose it to legal risks. The FI should not notify LE immediately after new transactions (D), as this could also interfere with the LE investigation or tip off the client. The FI should follow the instructions of LE regarding when and how to share information.


質問 # 34
A financial institution <FI> might use which option as intelligence to file a SAR/STR?

  • A. The Fl discovers a large number of securities transactions that appear to be related to day trading.
  • B. The Fl is unable to obtain evidence of required licensing or registration despite suspicion of money transmitting.
  • C. A customer makes several deposits in one month that appear to exceed their expected monthly income.
  • D. A customer receives a large, one-time wire from a law firm.

正解:B

解説:
Explanation
The correct answer is C because the FI is unable to obtain evidence of required licensing or registration despite suspicion of money transmitting, which is a red flag for money laundering and a violation of federal and state laws. Option A is incorrect because making several deposits in one month that appear to exceed their expected monthly income might not be indicative of suspicious activity, depending on the customer's profile and source of funds. Option B is incorrect because receiving a large, one-time wire from a law firm might not be indicative of suspicious activity, depending on the customer's relationship with the law firm and the purpose of the wire. Option D is incorrect because discovering a large number of securities transactions that appear to be related to day trading might not be indicative of suspicious activity, depending on the customer's investment strategy and risk tolerance.

質問 # 35
In which case should an investigator avoid escalating a suspicious event to the chief compliance officer and pursue other channels?

  • A. The transaction chain is likely connected to a known member of a terrorist organization.
  • B. A trade entity engages in complex trade deals involving numerous third-party intermediaries in incongruent lines of business.
  • C. An individual involved in a large sum transaction is a foreign PEP.
  • D. A close family member of the chief compliance officer is the beneficiary of a cross-border transfer.

正解:D

解説:
Explanation
An investigator should avoid escalating a suspicious event to the chief compliance officer if there is a potential conflict of interest, such as when a close family member of the officer is involved in the transaction. In such a case, the investigator should pursue other channels, such as reporting to a higher authority or an independent committee. The other options do not present a conflict of interest and should be escalated to the chief compliance officer as part of the normal procedure.

質問 # 36
The training department is conducting awareness training for unusual customer identification scenarios. Which two indicators should be included? (Select Two.)

  • A. The customer's internet protocol address does not match the identifying information provided during online registration.
  • B. The customer's name and home address cannot be verified
  • C. The customer opens the account in the name of a family member who begins making large deposits.
  • D. The customer requests payment of proceeds to an unrelated third party.
  • E. The customer frequently exchanges small bills for large bills.

正解:B、C

解説:
Explanation
This information can be found in the Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS) study guide, 6th edition, under the section on Unusual Customer Identification Scenarios. The guide explains that two indicators that should be included in awareness training for unusual customer identification scenarios are:
A: The customer opens the account in the name of a family member who begins making large deposits.
This is an indicator of potential structuring, where a customer may be attempting to avoid triggering reporting thresholds by depositing funds in smaller amounts over time. It is important for staff to be aware of this scenario and to monitor accounts for potential suspicious activity.
B: The customer's name and home address cannot be verified.
This is an indicator of potential identity theft or other fraudulent activity. If a customer's identifying information cannot be verified, it is important for staff to conduct additional due diligence to ensure that the customer is legitimate and that the account is not being used for illicit purposes.

  • C. A small charge at a gas station followed by a large charge at an electronics store
  • D. Multiple small deposits followed by a wire transfer to a large well-known international charity

正解:B

解説:
Explanation
The purchase of airplane tickets after receiving multiple small deposits from a crowdfunding platform might suggest that the funds are being used to facilitate travel for terrorist purposes.

質問 # 39
SAR/STR NARRATIVE
A SAR/STR has been submitted on five transactions conducted on the correspondent banking relationship with ABC Bank.
Client Information:
Remitter information: DEF Oil Resource Ltd. is the oldest member of the DEF Group. It was founded in 1977 as a general trading business with a primary focus on exports from Africa and North America. The group has business activities that span the entire energy value chain. Their core field of endeavor is centered within the oil and gas industry and its associated sub-sectors.
Beneficiary Information:
As per the response received from ABC Bank, it was determined that the beneficiaries are related to DEF Oil Resource Ltd. These were created by DEF Oil Resource Ltd. to purchase property in a foreign country on behalf of their senior management as part of a bonus scheme. The purpose behind this payment was for the purchase of property in another country.
Payment Reference:
ABCXXXXX31PZFG2H
ABCXXXXXX51PQGEH
ABCXXXXXX214QWVG
ABCXXXXXX41PSXA2
ABCXXXXXX815QWS3
Concerns:
* We are unsure about the country of incorporation of the beneficiaries.
* We are concerned about the transactional activity since the payment made towards entities (conducted on behalf of individuals) appears to be possible tax evasion.
* There appears to be an attempt to conceal the identity of individuals (senior management), which again raises concerns about the source of funds.
* Referring to the response received from ABC Bank, we are unclear about the ultimate beneficiary of funds.
* The remitter is involved in a high-risk business, (i.e., oil and crude products trading), and the beneficiary is involved in real estate business which again poses a higher risk.
While reviewing the account activity, it is noted that several transfers are sent to a company located in an offshore jurisdiction. Which step should the investigator take next?

  • A. Request information about the beneficiaries related to the company.
  • B. File a SAR/STR to the FIU where the company is located.
  • C. Request information from the company.
  • D. Conduct an open-source search to determine the ownership and registration of the company.

正解:A

解説:
Explanation
The best step for the investigator to take next is to request information about the beneficiaries related to the company. This will help to identify the ultimate beneficial owners of the funds and the purpose of the transactions. Requesting information from the company or filing a SAR/STR to the FIU where the company is located may not be feasible or effective, as the company may not cooperate or the FIU may not have jurisdiction over the offshore entity. Conducting an open-source search may provide some information about the ownership and registration of the company, but it may not be sufficient or reliable to determine the nature and legitimacy of the transactions.

The wire transfers for money remittances comply with the country's economic sanctions policies. A Fl investigator on the sanctions team reviews each wire transfer to ensure compliance with sanctions and to monitor transfer details.
An airline located in Cuba, unrelated to the business, legally sells airline tickets in Cuba to Cuban citizens wanting to travel outside of Cuba. The airline tickets are purchased using Cuban currency (CUC).
The MTB wants 100,000 USD worth of CUC. Purchasing CUC from a Cuban bank includes a 4% fee. The MTB contacts the airline to ask if the airline will trade its CUC for USD at a lower exchange fee than the Cuban bank. The airline agrees to a 1% fee. The MTB initiates a wire transfer to the airline which appears as normal activity in the monitoring system because of the business' travel package sales.
Which investigative actions should the investigator take concerning the 100.000 USD wire transfer? (Select Three.)

  • A. Review the wire transfer protocols for this customer.
  • B. Gather all account activity for Fl clients that purchased packages from the airline.
  • C. Recommend a plan for the Fl's management to restrict the account relationship.
  • D. Review a sampling of wire transfers initiated by travel companies with Cuba travel packages.
  • E. Review regulations applicable to foreign currency trading transactions.
  • F. Locate and review licenses, registrations, and account operating agreements associated with the MTB account.

正解:A、E、F

解説:
Explanation
The investigator should take the following investigative actions concerning the 100,000 USD wire transfer:
Review the wire transfer protocols for this customer. This will help the investigator to determine if the wire transfer is consistent with the customer's normal business activity and risk profile, or if it deviates from the established patterns or thresholds.
Review regulations applicable to foreign currency trading transactions. This will help the investigator to assess if the wire transfer violates any laws or regulations related to currency exchange, such as reporting requirements, licensing requirements, or sanctions compliance.
Locate and review licenses, registrations, and account operating agreements associated with the MTB account. This will help the investigator to verify if the MTB has the necessary authorization and documentation to conduct currency exchange transactions and if it has disclosed this activity to the FI.

  • B. Narcotics trafficking
  • C. Human smuggling/trafficking
  • D. Antiques smuggling

正解:C、E

解説:
Explanation
The correct answer is A and B because human smuggling/trafficking and terrorist financing are both predicate offenses for money laundering that could be related to the client's activities. Option C is incorrect because there is no indication of narcotics trafficking in the scenario. Option D is incorrect because there is no indication of antiques smuggling in the scenario. Option E is incorrect because there is no indication of tax evasion in the scenario.

質問 # 42
Law enforcement (LE) suspects human trafficking to occur during a major spotting event. LE officers asked several financial institutions (FIs) to monitor financial transactions occurring before, during, and after the event.
An investigator identified a pattern linked to a business. The business* account received multiple even dollar deposits between midnight and 4:00 AM. They occurred each day for several days prior to the date of the sporting event. Also, large cash deposits, typically between 2,000 USD and 3.000 USD. made by a person to the business' account occurred in many branches in the days after the sports event There was little information about the company. The company did not have any history of employee payroll expenses or paying taxes. Expenses from the business account included air travel and hotel expenses. Searches about the person making cash deposits showed little. An online social media platform webpage with the individual's name showed ads for dates" and "companionship." If the investigator uncovers evidence that foreign nationals are involved in this activity, they should also note the possible presence of:

  • A. tax fraud.
  • B. black market peso exchange.
  • C. human smuggling.
  • D. trade-based laundering.

正解:C

解説:
Explanation
If the investigator uncovers evidence that foreign nationals are involved in this activity, they should also note the possible presence of human smuggling (D). This is because human smuggling is the illegal movement of people across borders, often facilitated by criminal networks that exploit vulnerable migrants. According to the FATF and Egmont Group report on Financial Flows from Human Trafficking2, "human smuggling can be closely linked to human trafficking, as smuggled migrants may become victims of trafficking along their journey or at their destination" (p. 9). The report also states that some indicators of human smuggling are similar to those of human trafficking, such as:
Frequent cash deposits or withdrawals in different locations
Use of false or fraudulent identification documents
Expenses related to travel and accommodation
Involvement in online platforms that advertise sexual services
The other options are not as relevant or specific as option D.
Tax fraud (A) is the evasion of taxes by individuals or businesses, which may or may not be related to human trafficking or smuggling. Black market peso exchange (B) is a money laundering scheme that involves exchanging illicit proceeds in one currency for another currency at a discounted rate, which is more commonly associated with drug trafficking or trade-based laundering. Trade-based laundering is the manipulation of trade transactions to disguise the origin and ownership of illicit funds, which is also more likely to be linked to drug trafficking or other types of fraud.

An EU bank account received 1.8 million EUR from a Swiss bank. The EU bank determines the originator was indicted by U.S. law enforcement, arrested in Switzerland, and extradited for alleged insider trading.
Which is the best reason the EU bank should file a SAR/STR?

  • A. The originator was indicted by U.S. law enforcement.
  • B. The events raise concerns that the payment represents proceeds from insider trading.
  • C. The Swiss bank filed a SAR/STR with the Money Laundering Reporting Office Switzerland.
  • D. Insider trading is a predicate offense in the U.S. and Switzerland.

正解:B

解説:
Explanation
The best reason the EU bank should file a SAR/STR is that the events raise concerns that the payment represents proceeds from insider trading, which is a form of market abuse and a predicate offense for money laundering in many jurisdictions. The fact that the originator was indicted by U.S. law enforcement, arrested in Switzerland, and extradited for alleged insider trading indicates that there is a strong suspicion that the funds are derived from criminal activity. The other options are not sufficient reasons to file a SAR/STR, as they do not directly relate to the nature or source of the funds.

質問 # 44
When writing or reviewing a SAR/STR, it is important to:

  • A. ensure the narrative is kept to the point; easy to read; and addresses the who, what, when, where, why, and how.
  • B. ensure that the narrative is detailed with all available information so that law enforcement can decide what is relevant.
  • C. avoid mentioning suspect names in case it is seen by someone involved in criminal activity, effectively tipping them off.
  • D. keep the introduction brief but ensure all relevant transactions, account numbers, and suspect names are listed in the conclusion summary.

正解:A

解説:
Explanation
The correct answer is A because a SAR/STR narrative should be concise, clear, and complete, addressing the who, what, when, where, why, and how of the suspicious activity. Option B is incorrect because providing too much information can make the narrative confusing and irrelevant. Option C is incorrect because the introduction should provide a summary of the suspicious activity, not the conclusion. Option D is incorrect because suspect names should be mentioned in the narrative to identify the parties involved in the suspicious activity.

質問 # 45
A financial regulator is evaluating the effectiveness of a financial institution's (Fl) anti-financial crime program. Which condition should be met to satisfy the regulator?

  • A. In the past 3 years, internal auditing results show no high-severity issues and a maximum of three medium-seventy and four low-severity issues.
  • B. The program is aligned with the financial industry's anti-financial crime priorities.
  • C. The program is drafted using a risk-based approach to avoid the Fl being used as a conduit for criminal activities.
  • D. The program meets the minimum requirements of anti-financial crime standards, which are published by a financial industry association.

正解:C

解説:
Explanation
The condition that should be met to satisfy the regulator is that the program is drafted using a risk-based approach to avoid the FI being used as a conduit for criminal activities. A risk-based approach means that the FI identifies, assesses, and understands its exposure to financial crime risks and applies appropriate measures to mitigate them. This is consistent with the international standards and best practices for anti-financial crime compliance. The program being aligned with the financial industry's anti-financial crime priorities, meeting the minimum requirements of anti-financial crime standards published by a financial industry association, or having no high-severity issues in internal auditing results are not sufficient to satisfy the regulator, as they do not necessarily reflect the specific risks faced by the FI or demonstrate its effectiveness in preventing and detecting financial crimes.
