I've searched this thread but could not find what I'm looking for. Does anyone have procedural guidelines for the reporting of suspicious transactions to the legal/compliance department they might want to share?

In our institution, during initial and annual training, all bank staff are instructed to report suspicions to our Internal Auditor (our designated SAR reporter). That can take the form of an email, a phone call, a memo or a visit to his office. From that point, he interviews the reporting person for the appropriate details and then carries forward from there.

Thank you!
