A few questions for boards?
• How long does my average AML take-on procedure take?
• Is this client going to be profitable once I factor in the compliancecost?
• Do I know where AML really sits on my staff’s priority list?

• Do I know if I’ve got staff in need of additional AML training?
• Do we use our AML framework to restrict our BD strategy totargets we know we can actually take on?
