4 Trends in Compliance Four Layers of Control Reactive investigations Strategic analysis Proactive detection center Optimization & coverage As certain events occur, such as the Panama Papers and the FIFA scandal, names arise that banks will want to investigate. They will investigate whether they have any exposure to fraudulent activity, illegal money movement or terrorist activity. This level of analysis is when banks want to know if they are facilitating certain activities, such as human trafficking, fraudulent money services, or money movements from sanctioned countries. If an individual has multiple alerts across multiple systems, this will give a bank a fuller view of risk if it can be detected. Having a centralized function in place helps a bank to proactively detect risks it faces. Optimization and coverage assessment enable banks with an existing anti-money laundering platform to assess how well that platform is detecting money laundering, what its accuracy is, and whether there are any gaps in coverage.
