PUBLICATION OF THE WOLFSBERG FINANCIAL CRIME PRINCIPLES FOR CORRESPONDENT BANKING

On 28 October, the Wolfsberg Group published its updated Financial Crime Principles for Correspondent Banking.  This updates the 2014 version and provides guidance and best practices for banks, draws a distinction between Correspondent Relationships and Correspondent Banking activity, addresses entities other than banks who have Correspondent Relationships, and incorporates revised FAQ that were previously a separate document.  The Principles detail risk-based due diligence measures that, when undertaken, allow the Correspondent Bank to assess the profile, customer base and Financial Crime Programme of its Respondent customers.
