According to a 2007 poll, sponsored by the American Bankers Association, Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering compliance is projected to be the number one compliance issue for banks in 2007. Much of the challenge and expense for BSA/AML compliance is centered on collecting and analyzing data to identify money laundering. Bank management is tasked with weighing the cost of BSA/AML software against the cost of non-compliance. Every bank has a unique risk exposure for money laundering. This risk is related to the bank's customer base, types of products and its location. Selecting the appropriate software tool can minimize the potential for financial losses, deter increased expenses and avoid reputational risk. However, since the cost of these systems is relatively high, the bank should t...

BELLBROOK -- Jeff Cost spent what was to be his last night as a free man watching DVDs with his wife. There was a sword over their heads: The next morning at 9, Cost was to report to the federal courthouse to begin a probable 10-year prison sentence for drug dealing and money laundering. Conni Cost went to sleep about 1 a.m. on Thursday, June 18. Sometime that night, her husband opened the bedroom window to let fresh air in. He sealed with duct tape any opening that would allow auto exhaust fumes to enter the home from the garage and laid a rolled-up towel at the bottom of the door from the garage to the kitchen. He taped a note to a car mirror.
AUSTIN, Texas - Former U.S. House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, once considered among the nation's most powerful and feared lawmakers, was sentenced to three years in prison Monday for a scheme to influence elections that already cost him his job, leadership post and millions of dollars in legal fees. The sentence comes after a jury in November convicted DeLay, a Houston-area Republican, on charges of money laundering and conspiracy to commit money laundering for using a political action committee to illegally send corporate donations to Texas House candidates in 2002.
Sep 11, 2001 began like any other day but took a drastic turn at 8:45 am Eastern Daylight Time when a plane, hijacked by terrorists, crashed into the northern tower of the World Trade Center, setting it afire. It did not take long for Americans to realize they had been attacked on their own soil by an impervious enemy -- terrorists. Americans quickly determined that not only had terrorists attacked on US soil, but also that terrorists had taken advantage of the US financial system to fund the horrific events of Sep 11. The Patriot Act is one of the most comprehensive efforts to eliminate terrorist financing through anti-money laundering provisions. Although real estate transactions have remained temporarily exempted from implementation since the enactment of the law, these anti-money la...

Imagine what life would be like if you did not have a bank account and a credit or debit card. It would be much harder to pay your bills, take trips on airlines, which normally require a credit or debit card, and receive payments, just to start. The shocking thing is that more than one-quarter of all American households are unbanked or underbanked and that this number is rising, not falling, largely because of ill-thought-out financial regulation and policies. The term "unbanked" refers to people who have neither checking nor savings accounts. "Underbanked" refers to people who have either a checking or savings account but rely on alternative services such as non-bank money orders and check cashing, payday loans, pawn shops, refund anticipation loans, etc., at least once a year. These a...
