What is the opportunity?

The AML Investigations Support Team (AMLIST) plays an important role within RBC’s AML FIU by:

• Planning, conducting, and completing risk based investigations into matters escalated to the Team, through the gathering, analysis, and evaluation of relevant information in order to determine whether sufficient suspicion exists of money laundering, financing of terrorism, or other criminal activities, to justify making a report to the Regulatory Authority for the purpose of complying with legislative/regulatory requirements, and mitigating risk to RBC in line with established organizational policy.
• Conducting end-to-end investigations from the case referral review to the filing of STRs to FINTRAC for applicable scenarios and typologies.
• Contribute to the implementation of the Assisted Processing of STRs by identifying typologies, testing new transaction types, and providing feedback to relevant internal partners.

• Participate in the continued mop-up of the Assisted STR filing workflows, including the establishment of the subsequent RFI and network analysis processes.

• Fulfill annual compliance training hour requirements.
