Check out Sarah Beth Felix post about the OCC’s latest consent order for several #AML deficiencies. Give her a follow too - you won’t regret it! #cft #aml #consentorder #intheknow
CEO at Palmera Consulting; Co-Founder & Chief AML Officer at Acceleron Bank; Co-Founder at Hyper-S Research
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency is wasting no time in churning out #consentorders related to #AML deficiencies. Today we see 2 hefty C&Ds related to community banks with seriously deficient AML and #OFAC programs. The pdf below is for CNB Bank & Trust, N.A. in Illinois. A $1.3B bank with a 35-page cease & desist order. ?? Here are the main issues - 1) Big deficiencies outlined in CDD, CIP, Suspicious Activity Program, Training, Audit, Board, Risk Assessments, OFAC, and the AML Officer role. I'm not sure what is left that they were compliant in?! ?? 2) It is clear, just from the order, that they have #wealth mgmt or #fiduciary departments that did not have proper oversight. This is something I see ALL THE TIME at community FIs. If there are two depts. that give the Heisman to the AML team, it is commercial lending and the wealth mgmt or trust dept. 3) Staffing, authority, and expertise still an issue - both at the Board level as well as the AML team. 4) A lookback is required, but only after a data integrity project has been performed. ?? Here's a quick freebie for examiners, AML Officers, and model folks - most trust and wealth mgmt depts are NOT in #compliance with the Travel Rule. Yes, the one from the mid-80s. They send wires out from the internal GL of the bank, and the wire does not contain the actual originators info because that record sits in the separate trust/wealth system. 5) Just had a conversation this week about investigatory procedures and what a gift they are when written correctly. (don't over formalize it... write it as if you are having a beer with your buddy and explaining the investigatory steps needed for alert dispositions, cases, no SAR filed, and SARs). 6) One thing I thought was odd - they are requiring that any changes to thresholds are approved at the sr. mgmt and Board level... yikes. That is a punch in the gut to autonomy, authority, and efficiency. I thought the end goal was to have a dynamic environment?? 7) Effective management info systems (MIS) - this means #data. Data. Data. Data. An AML and #sanctions program will live or die on accurate, available, and contextual data. 8) The SAR lookback does not have a date range published. In addition, the lookback can be extended (supplemental SAR lookback) if determined by the OCC. That means... you better find all of the things that need to be reported. 9) The Risk Assessment should be one for AML and one for OFAC. Quantified, clearly stated, supported, accurate, and across ALL business lines of the bank, to include affiliates. 10) The audit program appears to need a complete overhaul. Obviously. If they had this many deficiencies and their auditors never caught it... terrible. If your bank is trying to keep all of your auditing services at one firm, you will pay for it. Dearly. Just because they dabble in AML auditing doesn't mean they are good at it. 11) OFAC - must create a program - data, fields, frequency, systems, etc. #ifollowdirtymoney
