I thought we learned that sharing customer information is allowed under certain circumstances, so option D seems incorrect to me.

I vaguely recall that SARs need to be kept for a certain period, but I can't remember if it's five years or something else.

The key here is that the FATF requires financial institutions to have sufficient safeguards for confidentiality when sharing AML data. I'm confident A is the right answer.

I'm a little confused about the specifics here. Do the FATF rules allow for any sharing of SARs information, or is it completely prohibited? I'll have to review my notes.

I think the answer here is Vessel. Since the question mentions foreign vendors and different countries/regions, tracking the vessel information, which would include the exporter details, seems like the logical choice to meet the reporting requirement.

I'm a little confused by this question. I'm not sure if performing data modeling (A) or meeting with the sponsor (C) would be the best next step after verifying information. I'll have to review my notes on the BA's responsibilities to decide between B and D.

Option D is just plain silly. Of course institutions can share information, they just need to follow the proper protocols. Common sense, really.
