An analyst reviews an alert for high volume Automated Clearing House (ACH) activity in an account. The analyst's initial research finds the account is for a commercial daycare account that receives high volumes of large government-funded ACH transactions to support the programs. The account activity consists of checks (cheques) made payable to individual names in varying dollar amounts. One check indicates rent to another business.

An Internet search finds that the daycare company owner has previous government-issued violations for safety and classroom size needs, such as not having enough chairs and tables per enrollee. These violations were issued to a different daycare name.

Simultaneous to this investigation, another analyst sends an email about negative news articles referencing local child/adult daycare companies misusing governmental grants. This prompts the financial institution (Fl) to search all businesses for names containing daycare' or 'care1. Text searches return a number of facilities as customers at the Fl and detects that three of these businesses have a similar transaction flow of high volume government ACH funding with little to no daycare expenses.

a. The wire transfers for money remittances comply with the country's economic sanctions policies. A Fl investigator on the sanctions team reviews each wire transfer to ensure compliance with sanctions and to monitor transfer details.

An airline located in Cuba, unrelated to the business, legally sells airline tickets in Cuba to Cuban citizens wanting to travel outside of Cuba. The airline tickets are purchased using Cuban currency (CUC).

The MTB wants 100,000 USD worth of CUC. Purchasing CUC from a Cuban bank includes a 4% fee. The MTB contacts the airline to ask if the airline will trade its CUC for USD at a lower exchange fee than the Cuban bank. The airline agrees to a 1% fee. The MTB initiates a wire transfer to the airline which appears as normal activity in the monitoring system because of the business' travel package sales.
