Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds! In this episode Tom Fox and Matt Kelly take a deep dive into the TD Bank BSA and AML enforcement action which led to $3bn in fines and penalties.

    In this episode, Tom and Matt discuss TD Bank's conscious strategy of not raising the budget, known as the Flat Cost Paradigm or Zero Expense Growth Paradigm and how this completely strangled the Bank’s compliance and AML functions. This tactic aimed to increase profits by keeping expenditures flat year after year. The impact of this strategy is particularly evident in the global AML team's expenditures on the U.S. anti-money laundering program, which decreased by 2021 compared to 2018. Despite significantly growing U.S. assets and net income, the bank refrained from increasing its budget for essential programs, a fact highlighted in the Justice Department indictment. The Bank’s strategy is a clear warning when a business puts profits over compliance.

    In this episode, Tom Fox and Matt Kelly take a deep dive into the study, 2024 Benchmarking Study: Testing & Monitoring and Data & Systems, jointly conducted by Radical Compliance and Rethink Compliance.

    The study raises critical concerns about the access and effectiveness of data testing in compliance programs. While many compliance officers engage in some level of testing, there is a significant gap in comprehensive testing and access to necessary data across enterprises. Only a small percentage tracks key performance indicators (KPIs) at granular levels, such as individual or department, which are essential for understanding program effectiveness. The discussion also highlights the importance of access to data from different departments, like HR and Finance, to improve compliance monitoring and alignment with DOJ guidelines. The episode concludes with a call for continued research, emphasizing the interconnectedness of data access, comprehensive testing, and compliance success.

Looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds! In this episode Tom Fox and Matt Kelly take a deep dive into the recent Securities and Exchange Commission FCPA  enforcement action involving John Deere. 

    The case centers on a $10 million civil penalty imposed by the SEC for bribery activities in the Thailand office of a newly acquired subsidiary, Wirtgen Group. This transgression spanned from 2017 to 2020, and despite having a code of business conduct, Wirtgen employees flouted rules by falsifying expenses, entertaining government officials at massage parlors, and engaging in a luxury sightseeing tour under the guise of a factory visit. 

    A critical issue was John Deere's delayed integration of Wirtgen into its compliance program, leading to internal control lapses and obvious red flags in expense reports. Although Deere has since taken significant remedial actions, including firing culpable employees and enhancing its compliance and internal audit programs, the situation underscores persistent compliance challenges even for large, sophisticated firms. This episode serves as a reminder of the essential compliance lessons from past decades that firms must steadfastly adhere to.
