据知情人士透露,美国正在调查花旗与一名受制裁俄罗斯官员的关系。
因讨论未公开信息而要求匿名的这位知情人士表示,美国司法部、联邦调查局和国税局的调查重点是花旗为Heritage Trust所做的工作,这家公司持有Suleiman Abusaidovich Kerimov的资产。Kerimov是一位俄罗斯亿万富翁,美国此前表示他利用政府腐败获利。
这位知情人士说,调查的一部分是审查花旗为防止金融犯罪而实施的反洗钱政策和系统。
监管机构近年来因花旗在风险管控方面的缺陷对其进行了处罚。美联储在7月表示该行在解决2020年收到的两项同意令方面进展不足,并对其处以1.36亿美元的罚款。
“花旗承诺以遵守所有适用法律法规的最高标准开展所有业务,”花旗发言人在电邮声明中表示。“与此同时,我们正在积极结束在俄罗斯的几乎所有机构银行业务,除了那些履行剩余法律和监管义务所必需的业务,同时继续关闭我们在俄罗斯的消费者银行业务。”
