Just make sure that you know how to apply such a policy. I have found several banks that have adopted this policy; however, upon review I generally find that they are actively opening MSB accounts and really meant to exclude only those MSBs that have to register with FinCEN. But technically they are in violation of their own policy.
When questioned about the purpose of the policy, it is inevitably to avoid CDD issues. This policy will not, in reality, remove us from all CDD responsibilities. MSBs are not the only high risk types of customers that are subject to due diligence. We may not want to bank a major money order issuer, but are we going to decline to open accounts for the small agents, or other potentially high risk entities like investment companies, jewelers, securities companies, insurance companies, etc?
It is very definitely a whole new BSA world out there now, isn't it?
