The Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), 31 CFR § 1022.210, requires that all MSBs establish and maintain an effective, written AML program. Reasonably designed to prevent the MSB from being used to facilitate money laundering and financing of terrorist activities. Must establish effective AML controls and procedures.
``````````The program requirements must include monitoring policies and procedures, sufficient to allow the risks associated with the operation to be understood and explained. Under the rules of the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), agents are responsible for developing the agency's policies, procedures, and internal controls. Each MSB is independently and fully responsible for implementing the appropriate AML program requirements. Consequently, the agent cannot avoid liability for failing to establish and maintain an effective AML program.
FinCEN works closely with its Delegate Examiners, the Small Business Division, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), as well as State Regulators, to better coordinate the efforts of compliance and maximize resources. One area of focus is how effectively MSBs are currently monitoring their agencies. FinCEN expects that information will be available to demonstrate that it has effectively developed and implemented risk-based internal policies, procedures and controls to ensure continuous and adequate monitoring of the agency's activity.
