Failure to file Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) when required is a significant violation of anti-money laundering (AML) regulations and a key indicator of potential financial crime. Banks are mandated to report suspicious activities under the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) to help law enforcement identify and investigate illicit financial activities. Thus, not filing SARs when necessary could lead to serious consequences, including enforcement actions such as a cease and desist order.
While the other options listed are also important aspects of BSA/AML compliance, failure to file SARs is typically considered a more severe violation due to its direct impact on identifying and combating financial crime.
