SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OCC
has submitted the Bank Secrecy Act/
Anti-Money Laundering Risk
Assessment (Risk Assessment) to OMB
under the emergency processing
procedures in 5 CFR 1320.13. Further,
the OCC has requested OMB action
under these procedures by August 24,
2005. Thereafter, the OCC will seek
clearance of the Risk Assessment under
OMB’s standard procedures.
Title: Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money
Laundering Risk Assessment.
OMB Number: [1557–To be assigned].
Form Number: N/A.
Abstract: The Risk Assessment will
enhance the ability of examiners and
bank management to identify and
evaluate any Bank Secrecy Act/AntiMoney Laundering risks associated with
the banks’ products, services,
customers, and locations. As new
products and services are introduced,
existing products and services change,
and the banks expand through mergers
and acquisitions, management’s
evaluation of money laundering and
terrorist financing risks must evolve as
well. Absent appropriate controls, such
as this risk assessment, these lines of
business, products, or entities could
elevate Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money
Laundering risks.
Type of Review: New collection.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit.
Number of Respondents: 2,042.
Total Annual Responses: 2,042.
Frequency of Response: Annually.
Total Annual Burden Hours: 21,364.
All comments will be considered in
formulating the subsequent submission

Comments are invited on:
(a) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information has practical utility;
(b) The accuracy of the agency’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of information;
