Brief description:
In an unprecedented move, TD Bank pleaded guilty to a felony in connection with a $3.09 billion AML settlement, revealing its failure to control more than $18.3 trillion in transactions and allowing $671 million to be laundered through its accounts. The revelations outraged investors and led to at least two major class-action lawsuits. Both Bragar Eagel & Squire and the Pomerantz Law Firm accuse TD Bank of making false and misleading statements about its compliance practices, leading to inflated stock prices and significant losses when the bank's compliance violations came to light.
Actionable information:
The TD Bank case demonstrates the serious financial and reputational risks that arise from inadequate compliance controls, particularly in relation to AML obligations. Financial institutions should prioritize modernizing their AML systems and provide transparency to investors to avoid such pitfalls. This case also highlights the importance of timely disclosure of compliance risks to protect shareholder interests.
