SAR Decision Making & Doc Web Seminar
August 13 • 1:30 – 3:30 p.m.
Do you have a filing structure a third party reviewer can recognize and evaluate? If so, how well does it work? Can you show evidence of an objective, consistent process for making SAR decisions - one that explains why your institution did not file a SAR?
Effective suspicious activity reporting requires a dependable flow of information from a variety of sources; e.g. tellers, CSRs, loan officers, operations personnel, etc. to an individual or group that makes SAR filing decisions. Decision makers focus on 1) whether the activity is suspicious and 2) whether a SAR filing is required or advisable. The process must be well documented, particularly in circumstances where a decision is made not to file. In 1998 and 2004 the federal bank regulatory agencies sent Interagency Memoranda indicating all federally supervised institutions should establish internal processes for the filing of SARs. Many have neglected this responsibility.
