Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anti-Money Laundering Provisions of the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 covers rules under Section 313 and 319(b) of the Act. on October 26, 2001, President Bush signed the USA PATRIOT Act aimed at giving the government new powers in the war on terrorism. Title III of the new legislation, the International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act of 2001, imposes significant new anti-money laundering requirements on all financial institutions, including domestic banks and domestic operations of foreign banks, broker-dealers, futures commission merchants, and investment companies, and gives the U.S. Treasury Department the power to impose potential additional obligations on them as well. It also indirectly impacts foreign banks. This new title from CCH outlines the provisions of Title III and highlights provisions of particular interest to the various affected financial institutions. It also addresses the Interim Guidance on compliance with sections 313 and 319(b) of the USA PATRIOT Act.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The USA Patriot Act (Patriot Act) is an extensive anti-terrorism law that aims to strengthen the nation's defenses against terrorism. The money laundering provisions under Title III of the Act target the financial infrastructure of criminal organizations and terrorist groups. The new anti-money laundering (AML) legislation requires the private sector to take a more active role in the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing. Accordingly, the cost of doing business has increased dramatically for businesses, most of which are in the financial services industry. However, the regulatory burden of the Patriot Act fell more heavily on some institutions than the others. In this dissertation, I use the heterogeneous-firm model of regulation derived from the interest-group theory of government to test whether or not the money laundering provisions of the Patriot Act led to a wealth transfer from small commercial banks and thrifts to large ones. The empirical evidence suggests that small institutions have borne a disproportionately greater compliance burden than their large competitors. I also test a number of hypotheses derived from the public-interest theory of government that institutions which are more likely to be targeted by money launderers have been affected more by the new law in terms of compliance burden than the ones which are not. Empirical findings do not support a positive correlation between money laundering risk and compliance burden borne by institutions.

Book excerpt: Since 9/11, the U.S. has established tools to address the threat to the U.S. financial system of money laundering and terrorist financing. One tool is Sect. 311 of the USA PATRIOT Act, which authorizes the Treasury Dept. to prohibit U.S. financial institutions from maintaining certain accounts for foreign banks if they involve foreign jurisdictions or institutions found to be of primary money laundering concern. To make this finding, Treasury examines several factors and issues a proposed rule announcing its intent to apply Sect. 311 restrictions. This report examines: (1) the process used to implement Sect. 311 restrictions; (2) the process Treasury follows to finalize or withdraw a proposed rule; and (3) how Treasury assesses the impact of Sect. 311.

Book excerpt: "The United States Code is the official codification of the general and permanent laws of the United States of America. The Code was first published in 1926, and a new edition of the code has been published every six years since 1934. The 2012 edition of the Code incorporates laws enacted through the One Hundred Twelfth Congress, Second Session, the last of which was signed by the President on January 15, 2013. It does not include laws of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress, First Session, enacted between January 2, 2013, the date it convened, and January 15, 2013. By statutory authority this edition may be cited "U.S.C. 2012 ed." As adopted in 1926, the Code established prima facie the general and permanent laws of the United States. The underlying statutes reprinted in the Code remained in effect and controlled over the Code in case of any discrepancy. In 1947, Congress began enacting individual titles of the Code into positive law. When a title is enacted into positive law, the underlying statutes are repealed and the title then becomes legal evidence of the law. Currently, 26 of the 51 titles in the Code have been so enacted. These are identified in the table of titles near the beginning of each volume. The Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives continues to prepare legislation pursuant to 2 U.S.C. 285b to enact the remainder of the Code, on a title-by-title basis, into positive law. The 2012 edition of the Code was prepared and published under the supervision of Ralph V. Seep, Law Revision Counsel. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contributions by all who helped in this work, particularly the staffs of the Office of the Law Revision Counsel and the Government Printing Office"--Preface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since September 11, 2001, the United States has established tools to address the threat to the U.S. financial system of money laundering and terrorist financing. One such tool is Section 311 of the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, which authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury (Treasury) to prohibit U.S. financial institutions from maintaining certain accounts for foreign banks if they involve foreign jurisdictions or institutions found to be of primary money laundering concern. To make this finding, Treasury examines several factors and generally issues a proposed rule announcing its intent to apply Section 311 restrictions. GAO was asked to examine (1) the process used to implement Section 311 restrictions, (2) the process Treasury follows to finalize or withdraw a proposed rule, and (3) how Treasury assesses the impact of Section 311. GAO reviewed financial and investigative U.S. government documents and met with government officials and representatives of affected banks. GAO recommends that Treasury establish guidance to clarify responsibility to implement and finalize Section 311 actions. Treasury said it will act in response to this recommendation, although the process has been improved. Justice and State did not comment.
