PO must have a sufficient level of seniority within the bank and sufficient resources, including sufficient time and (if necessary) support staff. The level of resources should be according to the size, complexity, and geographical spread of the bank&#8217;s customer\/product base and should include arrangements to apply in the event of the temporary absence of the PO.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Managing the risk of money laundering: <\/strong>The senior management of the bank is required to ensure that appropriate risk-based policies are in place across different aspects of the business. The banks should adopt an approach to avert themselves of the risk of being used for the purposes of money laundering or terrorist financing.

The Bank can however make normal inquiries to learn more about the transaction or instruction to determine whether the activities of the customer arouse suspicion. Where it is known or suspected that a Suspicious Transaction Report has already been made internally or externally, and it then becomes necessary to make further inquiries, care must be taken to ensure that the suspicion is not disclosed either to the client or to any other third party. Subject to internal procedures, such inquiries should normally\/only be made as directed by the Principal Officer (PO).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This module covers the following topics:<\/p>\n<ul id=\"block-1d5073de-38e7-4361-b3cb-0a5c622a2bb9\" class=\"block-editor-block-list__block wp-block is-selected rich-text block-editor-rich-text__editable is-hovered wp-block\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"textbox\" contenteditable=\"true\" spellcheck=\"false\" aria-label=\"Write list\u2026\" aria-multiline=\"true\" data-block=\"1d5073de-38e7-4361-b3cb-0a5c622a2bb9\" data-type=\"core\/list\" data-title=\"List\">\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/aml-kyc-2\/roles-and-responsibilities-of-the-principal-officer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-rich-text-format-boundary=\"true\">Roles and Responsibilities of the Principal Officer<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/aml-kyc-2\/roles-and-responsibilities-of-the-staff\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Roles and Responsibilities of the Staff<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/aml-kyc-2\/roles-and-responsibilities-of-internal-audit-and-controls\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Roles and Responsibilities of Internal Audit and Controls<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>\u00a0<\/h3>\n<div class=\"apply\">\n<h3>\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/practice\/aml-kyc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-91326 size-full aligncenter\" title=\"AML KYC Vskills\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Certified-Corporate-Governance-Professional-1.png\" alt=\"AML-KYC Compliance officer free practice test\" width=\"960\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Certified-Corporate-Governance-Professional-1.png 960w, https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Certified-Corporate-Governance-Professional-1-300x47.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/aml-kyc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Go back to Tutorial<\/a>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/Certified-AML-KYC-Compliance-Officer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Go to Home Page<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Internal Control and structure in banks In order to control money laundering, it is important that the Internal Control and structure in banks are stated clearly, banking\u00a0by nature faces a huge amount of risk and thus the internal control systems in the context of banking organizations have special importance for sound operations.
