Governance arrangements (A):“Sound governance and risk management arrangements are fundamental to assessing and managing ML/TF risk in products and services.”(CAMS 6th Edition, Risk-Based Approach for Products and Services)

Complexity of the products (B):“Complexity increases risk—products that are highly complex, opaque, or allow for multiple layers or jurisdictions are more vulnerable to misuse for ML/TF.”(CAMS 6th Edition, Product Risk Assessment)

Incorrect Options:

C: Last audit results inform program effectiveness, not inherent product risk.

D: Business financial status is considered in customer risk assessment, not product risk.

Money laundering has far-reaching consequences that extend beyond individual institutions and directly affect national and global economic stability. FATF and international bodies consistently highlight that large-scale money laundering can undermine political and economic systems.

One of the most significant impacts is the destabilization of legitimate governments. Money laundering enables organized crime, corruption, and terrorist financing, which can weaken public institutions, distort policy-making, and erode public trust. In extreme cases, criminal organizations gain influence over governments, law enforcement, or key economic sectors.

While money laundering can indirectly affect inflation and growth, it does not directly cause declining money supplies. “Sectoral polarization” is not a standard or widely recognized economic impact in AML literature. The most consistently recognized systemic consequence is the erosion of governance, rule of law, and institutional integrity.

Therefore, destabilization of legitimate governments is the most accurate and regulator-supported answer.

Adverse media screening is an important component of customer due diligence, but reliance on general search engines presents several limitations recognized by AML practitioners and regulators.

Search engines typically provide unstructured data, which makes it difficult to systematically analyze and document results for compliance purposes. Information may be incomplete, duplicated, or lack context.

The process is also time-consuming and highly manual, particularly for institutions screening large customer populations. Manual reviews increase operational burden and introduce inconsistency and human error.

Additionally, search engine algorithms vary, meaning results can differ depending on timing, location, and personalization, leading to inconsistent outcomes that are difficult to audit or reproduce.

While language coverage and relevance may be challenges, the most critical limitations relate to lack of structure, inefficiency, and inconsistent results.
