Santander is the latest big name in finance to fall foul of anti-money laundering requirements with a significant fine of more than £107 million. The bank's response was that it was "very sorry" for the problems that led to the fine from the UK regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). According to the FCA, Santander failed to properly oversee and manage the systems that had been set up to prevent money laundering. Attempts that had been made to later try and address the problem were labelled by the regulator as "inadequate" and the FCA said that the situation created a prolonged and severe risk of money laundering and financial crime. The total amount of the fine - £107.7 million - is designed to reflect the severity of the situation at such a prominent financial institution.

Money laundering was at the top of the agenda at the recent Anti-Corruption Conference that took place in December. The event attracted leaders from all over the world and the UK representative was particularly vocal about the need to continue the fight against corruption on a global level. The UK representative at the event was Karen Pierce, UK ambassador to the US, and she made several key points about the global efforts to fight illicit finance, including highlighting how the invasion of the Ukraine by Russia shows just how much of a threat corruption is to global stability. Pierce also focused on how illicit finance has been specifically used to gain access and influence, not just in the UK but countries all over the world. She said the message from the UK was about the necessity of redoubling efforts to counter these threats.

Yet more issues with compliance among UK based banks, as the UK regulator handed out another fine in December, this time to Metro Bank. London-headquartered Metro Bank was fined for publishing incorrect information to investors, something that the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) says the bank was fully aware of. In fact, the FCA is so convinced that the top team at Metro Bank knew about the failure in compliance that it has also taken action against former Chief Executive Craig Donaldson and former Chief Financial Officer David Arden. Both received fines as a result of what the FCA says was being knowingly concerned with what happened, £223,100 for Donaldson and £134,600 for Arden.

New data has revealed that there are some parts of the UK that are more vulnerable to breaches in AML Compliance than others. The data comes from a survey of 500 regulated UK businesses across many different sectors, including legal and finance. It shows that there are some serious issues with AML Compliance in some parts of the UK and that this is creating 'hotspots' where there are more opportunities for money laundering than in other areas. Northern Ireland is one example of this - 71% of those who responded to the survey in this part of the UK had not altered their approach to onboarding new customers since Russia invaded Ukraine. 85% had not changed their approach to monitoring clients since the beginning of the conflict. This means that it would in theory be much simpler for Russian-originating money laundering to happen here.

Every organisation needs AML Solutions in place today - and where there are failings, the UK regulator will often hold a CEO accountable. The recent case of the Sonali Bank CEO is a prime example of this. Mohammad Ataur Rahman Prodhan was the former CEO of Sonali Bank and he has been found by the FCA to be responsible for multiple failings at the institution. In particular, during the period of 7 June 2012 to 4 March 2014, the CEO failed to take steps to mitigate AML risks at the bank that came from an embedded culture of non-compliance. Other failings were also listed, including not making sure that there was a clear chain of responsibility to oversee the UK branches of the bank and not ensuring that the Money Laundering Reporting Officer Function was effective at the bank.
