I feel pretty confident about this one. The key is to ensure the bank is proactively screening all transactions and clients for potential OFAC matches, and promptly investigating any hits. The other options, while important, aren't directly focused on the core OFAC compliance program.

Okay, let's think this through. The question is asking about an OFAC sanctions screening audit, so I'd want to look at the bank's wire transfer screening and client due diligence procedures. Reviewing the SAR filings could also be relevant to ensure they're identifying potential issues.
