Attempted transactions - 04/10/15 12:36 PM
Was hoping to get some thoughts with regards to completing SARs on attempted transactions and the characterizations that might apply.
A hypethitical scenario would if a customer conducted structured cash deposits into their account and then attempts to send an outgoing wire. The bank refuses to complete the wire transaction as the customer would not provide information with regards to whom the beneficiary is or the purpose of the wire.
Would item 33e (suspicious eft/wire transfers) be selected or would the wire information just be information for the narrative?
