Bank of America fined $1.2 billion over sanctions violations
Original: bank
Bank of America has been fined $1.2 billion by the US Treasury Department for violating money laundering and sanctions laws, one of the largest penalties of its kind. The news is trending alongside a separate development: the IMF and World Bank have launched the 'Bangkok Blueprint', a global plan to combat cyber-enabled financial fraud, announced with Thailand's support in Bangkok.
Why now: A record-scale US penalty on a major bank coincided with a new IMF-World Bank anti-fraud initiative unveiled in Bangkok.
