COMPLIANCE
CONFIDENTIAL
congratulations
F
eedback and “war stories”
from successful suspicious
activity report (SAR)-based
investigations are an often sought
topic for ACAMS articles,
conferences, seminars and
presentations. Although general
validation of the value of anti-
money laundering/Bank Secrecy
Act (AML/BSA) programs are
regularly touted by law
enforcement representatives,
specifics are rarely cited. Even if
it was practical to give confidential
congratulations, it is a
consideration rarely recognized
by those in the actual position
to bestow them.
