Acams CAMS-FCI Exam - Topic 3 Question 14 Discussion

Posted by Tyisha on Apr 04, 2025 at 01:46 PM

An unusual spike in activity has occurred for a customer who is a supplier of aviation parts to a military force. The customer's current line of business is consistent with the banks records, and no adverse media hits have occurred. Which is the best reason for an investigator to continue an investigation?

Suggested Answer: A

The best reason for an investigator to continue an investigation is that the end-user is a military force. This is because supplying aviation parts to a military force may involve sanctions risk, export control risk, or human rights risk, depending on the nature and destination of the military force. The investigator should conduct further due diligence to determine if the customer is complying with the relevant laws and regulations, and if the bank is exposed to any reputational or legal risk by providing services to the customer.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think the absence of adverse media hits (option B) could actually suggest there's nothing suspicious going on.

I've got a strategy - I'll carefully consider each option and try to identify the one that best aligns with the need to continue the investigation despite the lack of adverse media hits.

Okay, let's see. The key seems to be identifying the best reason to continue the investigation, even though the customer's current business is consistent with the bank's records.
