17 Suspicious Transactions: Recent Money Laundering Investigations 17
18 HSBC (2012) HSBC Group agreed to pay $1.92 billion (forfeiture of $1.25 billion in illegal transactions and $655 million in civil penalties) as part of a deferred prosecution agreement Summary: HSBC lacked an effective AML program Failed to conduct due diligence on certain foreign correspondent accounts Failed to detect and report evidence of money laundering 18
19 HSBC (2012) (cont d) Product Risk: HSBC cleared $290 million of sequentially numbered traveler s checks without investigating for money laundering Customer Risk: High-risk Mexican currency exchange houses customers ( casa de cambios ) and other money transmitter clients were not given closer scrutiny Country Risk: No structure to AML program to ensure systematic risk assessments 19
20 HSBC (2012) (cont d) Transaction Monitoring: Ineffective monitoring of U.S./ Mexico cross-border bulk cash movements Transaction monitoring: Delayed filing of suspicious activity reports (more than one year after the underlying transactions) Inadequate testing and staffing for compliance Insufficient due diligence on foreign correspondent accounts 20
21 Wachovia (2010) Willfully failed to establish anti-money laundering (AML) program Was aware as early as 1996 of high risk that drug money was being laundered through casas de cambios, but continued to do business with CDCs Entered into deferred prosecution agreement and forfeited $160M to resolve charges Agreement is the result of an investigation into transactions with CDCs 21
22 Bank of New York (2005) Bank did not adequately monitor and report suspicious accounts Scheme involved unlicensed transmissions of about $7B, which originated in Russia, passed through U.S. accounts, and then moved into other accounts worldwide Bank agreed to pay $38M in penalties and victim compensation Nine individuals convicted, including Bank of New York President, for their role in money laundering scheme 22

25 Who s Paying Attention? 25
26 26
27 Other AML rules and requirements are provided by the following regulatory agencies and organizations: Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Board of Federal Reserve System Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation National Credit Union Administration 27
28 Federal criminal investigations into AML violations: Department of Justice U.S. Attorney s Offices Asset Forfeiture and Money Laundering Section (AFMLS) Federal Bureau of Investigation Internal Revenue Service 28
29 How to Prevent Money Laundering 29
30 Who must have an AML program? Financial institution is broadly defined (31 U.S.C. 5312) Banks, credit unions, trust companies, finance companies Broker-dealers and investment banks Insurance companies Money transmitters Casinos Non-covered institutions, like hedge funds, may still have AML policies Remember: no one may violate criminal prohibitions 30
31 31
32 1) Policies, procedures, and controls Develop a company policy statement Develop a risk-based AML program that will comply with the PATRIOT Act CIP Due diligence and enhanced due diligence for foreign correspondent and private banking accounts Comply with special measures imposed by the Department of Treasury SARs Information sharing with law enforcement and other financial institutions 32
33 2) Designate an AML Compliance Officer Should be competent and knowledgeable regarding applicable laws and money laundering risk Should be empowered with full responsibility to develop and enforce appropriate policies and procedures Responsibilities should include: Monitoring compliance with AML program Updating AML program, as necessary Providing appropriate AML training to personnel Assisting in resolution of due diligence and red flag issues Ensuring that AML records are maintained and filed in accordance with applicable regulations 33
34 3) Independent Audits Should be conducted internally or by qualified independent parties Should be performed periodically or at least on an annual basis Results of audit should be reported to senior management, board of directors, or designated board committee Audit should identify areas of weakness or recommendations for enhancing AML program 34
35 4) Training Can be accomplished by employees watching a video or conducting a live or interactive web-based training Should be conducted regularly Should focus on: Particular areas of the financial institution that are vulnerable to money laundering Internal policies designed to prevent money laundering Looking for red flags in everyday transactions 35
36 Common red flags Customers who provide insufficient or suspicious information Efforts made by customer or bank employee to avoid reporting or record keeping requirement Funds transfer activity is unexplained, repetitive, or shows unusual patterns Suspicious Automated Clearinghouse (ACH) transactions Activity inconsistent with customer s business Suspicious lending activity Changes in bank-to-bank transactions 36
37 Common red flags (cont d) Increased cross-border financial institution transactions Bulk currency shipments Trade finance Privately-owned ATMs Shell company activity Personal accounts/transactions used for official embassy and foreign consulate business Strange employee behavior 37
38 What should I do if I see a red flag? " Report it! Don t ignore red flags! " Fill out the SAR narrative accurately " Don t disclose to any person involved in suspicious activity that a SAR has been filed " Maintain proper supporting documentation when filing an SAR 38
39 How can your institution monitor red flags for potentially suspicious activity? " Incorporate red flags into AML procedures " Don t copy template red flags without tailoring them to your institution " Implement systems that would allow the institution to monitor money movements and other account activity " Develop an administrative process for filing SARs and reviewing SAR filings 39
40 Executive Summary v Money laundering can result in civil and criminal penalties v Large and small institutions are vulnerable to money laundering v Protect your institution by establishing an AML program that is in compliance with the PATRIOT Act remember the Four Pillars v Use the regulatory agencies and organizations as a source for up-to-date information about money laundering prevention v Training: You can t detect money laundering if you don t know what you are looking for take heed to the red flags! 40
