Just Released: FinCEN Statement on Enforcement Involving a Compliance Program Failure

“If you think compliance is expensive, try non-compliance.” Former U.S. Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty

Last week, FinCEN released a statement on enforcement to advise casinos on how to stay compliant within the BSA regulations. The document includes background details on their enforcement approach and the factors that FinCEN may find that could affect your casino. This includes:

 “Pillar violations” would include the lack of one or more required elements of an AML program. Although AML program requirements may vary among categories of financial institution, all financial institutions that are subject to AML program requirements must implement a set of internal controls, conduct training and independent testing, and designate one or more individuals to assure day-to-day compliance with the BSA. See, e.g., 31 C.F.R. § 1022.210 (AML program requirements for money services businesses).

A critical piece in the Six-Pillars of your AML Compliance Program is training.
