AML Controls — Internal Compliance Memo
A compliance memo a regulator could read four different ways. Each ambiguous verb becomes a finding the reviewer must close.
The document
## Memo: Updates to AML Transaction Monitoring
Effective Q3, the Bank shall implement robust controls over transaction monitoring across all retail and commercial lines. Front-line staff are expected to escalate suspicious activity promptly and to maintain sufficient documentation of their review.
The Compliance team will provide adequate training to ensure that branch personnel understand the new thresholds and can apply them appropriately. Where applicable, exception reports shall be reviewed in a timely manner by a designated supervisor, and material findings will be elevated to the BSA Officer as soon as practical.
Internal audit shall periodically test the effectiveness of these controls and shall report any significant deficiencies to senior management for appropriate remediation.
