Financial Crimes Enforcement Network September 2024 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Proposal of Special Measure Against ABLV Bank, AS as a Financial Institution of Primary Money Laundering Concern; Withdrawal
Document Number: 2024-22299
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2024-09-27
Agency: Department of the Treasury, Financial Crimes Enforcement Network
This document withdraws FinCEN's finding that ABLV Bank AS (ABLV) is a financial institution of primary money laundering concern and the related notice of proposed rulemaking seeking to impose the fifth special measure regarding ABLV, pursuant to section 311 of the USA PATRIOT Act (section 311). Because of material subsequent developments that have mitigated the money laundering risks associated with ABLV, FinCEN has determined ABLV is no longer a financial institution of primary money laundering concern that warrants the implementation of a special measure under section 311.

FinCEN, a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Treasury), is issuing a final rule to include certain investment advisers in the definition of "financial institution" under the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), prescribe minimum standards for anti-money laundering/countering the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) programs to be established by certain investment advisers, require certain investment advisers to report suspicious activity to FinCEN pursuant to the BSA, and make several other related changes to FinCEN regulations. These regulations will apply to certain investment advisers who may be at risk for misuse by money launderers, terrorist financers, or other actors who seek access to the U.S. financial system for illicit purposes and who threaten U.S. national security.
