CAMS-FCI Exam Dumps : Advanced CAMS-Financial Crimes Investigations

A country that does not have strong predicate offenses and is lax in prosecuting AML cases could suffer increased organized crime and corruption as a social/economic consequence. "Weaknesses in the AML/CFT regime can lead to a range of economic and social consequences, including...increased crime and corruption." (CAMS Manual, 6th Edition, page 32)

As part of an internal fraud investigation, an AML officer should gather information on the employee from coworkers and supervisors before the interview, as this can help to establish a baseline of the employee’s behavior, role, and responsibilities, and identify any red flags or anomalies. The other options are not consistent with best practices because they can compromise the integrity of the investigation, violate the employee’s rights, or discourage cooperation.

An investigator should avoid escalating a suspicious event to the chief compliance officer if there is a potential conflict of interest, such as when a close family member of the officer is involved in the transaction. In such a case, the investigator should pursue other channels, such as reporting to a higher authority or an independent committee. The other options do not present a conflict of interest and should be escalated to the chief compliance officer as part of the normal procedure.
