The Danske Bank AML Enforcement Action

The award-winning, Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast that takes a deep dive into a compliance-related topic, literally going into the weeds to explore a subject. In this episode, we consider the Danske Bank AML enforcement action, and the bank recently pled guilty to money-laundering violations through its Estonia subsidiaries.

Some of the highlights included:

  • The background facts.
  • What did the home bank know and when?
  • Did a tech failure set this all in motion?
  • The Bank’s attempts to hide the violations from US authorities.
  • Why is the US and not Denmark bringing an enforcement action against a Danish bank?
  • What about CCO certification?
  • The role of the Danish monitor.
