U.S. weighs $5 million fine against ex-MoneyGram compliance chief

At a Senate Banking Committee hearing in March 2013, David Cohen, Treasury's undersecretary for terrorism and financial intelligence, said FinCEN would "look for more opportunities" to issue penalties to "partners, directors, officers and employees" of financial institutions "who themselves actively participate in misconduct."

Guess they weren't kidding...

I've seen this song and dance before. I'll believe it when I see it. And no, I don't count the small penalty handed down to BBH's former AML Chief as substantial.

Didn't know about that...thanks.

BBH's former Global AML Compliance Officer Harold Crawford was also fined $25,000 and suspended for one month.
