has release of information rights, mailing, disclosures and

transaction rights

• Go forward or maintenance interaction only at this time

• 30 day response request letter to “beneficial owner” to provide full

CIP w/ account restriction until supplied

About SunTrust

SunTrust Banks, Inc. (the “Company”) is a

regional financial institution, servicing a broad

range of consumer, commercial, corporate and

institutional clients. As of December 31, 2013,

SunTrust had total assets of approximately

$175 billion and total deposits of

approximately $130 billion. Through its

flagship subsidiary, SunTrust Bank, the

Company operates an extensive branch and

ATM network throughout the Southeastern and

Mid-Atlantic United States and a full array of

technology-based, 24-hour delivery channels.

The Company also serves clients in selected

markets nationally. Its primary businesses

include deposit, credit, and trust and

investment management services. Through

various subsidiaries, the Company provides

mortgage banking, insurance, brokerage,

equipment leasing, and capital markets

services.

‹#›

AML Compliance Organizational Structure

While establishing policies and broad procedures for conducting customer

due diligence is the responsibility of the central AML function in the

institution, execution of the customer due diligence is accomplished by

each line of business and, specifically, each relationship manager

overseeing the relationship with that customer. Procedures differ from

sub-line to sub-line, depending upon the level of risk involved. There are

several common elements, including gathering basic CIP information and

verifying that information; however, requirements for due diligence

beyond this depend, in large part, on the product or service being used,

the client type and the geographies in which the client operates or the

product and service are used. Questionnaires, certifications and, in some

cases, indemnities are tailored to meet many different situations.

Examples: CIP Checklist for Global Trade Solutions far more extensive

than the Know Your Customer Form for personal accounts in retail.

‹#›

Risk Factors used in Risk Scoring

Current Risk Factors –

• Geography – physical and permanent residence geographies, headquarters

geography, parent company geography, geographies of business

activity/operation

• Products/Services – including volumes of expected foreign transaction activity

and assets held at SunTrust

• Client information – occupation/industry, length of relationship with the bank,

residency status, parent company, entity type, political exposure

Future Risk Factors –

• Geography – physical and permanent residence geographies, headquarters

geography, parent company geography, geographies of business

activity/operation

• Products/Services – including expected transaction activity in high risk

products & services, and assets held at SunTrust

• Client information – occupation/industry, length of relationship with the bank,

residency status, parent company, entity type, political exposure, channel of

opening

‹#›

Risk Scoring and Risk Assessment

Maintain a low risk, high risk, automatic high risk and prohibited

scale of categorizing clients, products, services and geographies

Prohibited customer types include:

• Any listed SDN or Blocked Person

• Any entity or individual that is otherwise the target of an economic

sanctions program administered by OFAC

• A shell bank

• Money Services Businesses (“MSBs”)

• Politically Exposed Persons (“PEPs”)

• Casas de Cambio and Exchange Houses

• Foreign Embassies and Consulates or Foreign Government/Agencies

• Foreign Financial Institutions located in automatic high risk or

prohibited jurisdictions

• Corporations with bearer shares

• Telemarketers with accounts through which their customer

transactions are processed

‹#›

Beneficial Ownership

Currently, SunTrust uses a risk based methodology for determining levels

of beneficial ownership of juridical persons. For example, third party

payment processors are an automatic high risk client type and require

identification of beneficial ownership at the 5% ownership level.

Beneficial ownership information gathered consists of name, country of

permanent residence and, if available, physical address. Other automatic

high risk client types include foreign financial institutions, non-resident

aliens with assets on deposit or managed in excess of $500k and Private

Investment Companies.

High risk accounts, due to risk scoring, by contrast only require

identification of beneficial ownership at the 15% level of equity

ownership, but require name, country of permanent residence and, if

available, physical address.

Future state: SunTrust is automating the RAF/EDD collection process,

which will enable SunTrust to begin collecting beneficial ownership for all

clients at all risk levels at the 10% beneficial ownership level, with

exceptions for those riskier clients that will require beneficial ownership

information at lower levels (e.g. third party payment processors, as

described above).

‹#›

Beneficial Ownership – Use of Information

Verification of Information. The value of beneficial ownership

information is, largely, dependent upon the honesty of the person

giving you the information. With respect to private companies,

the books and records of the company are maintained by the

company and may be changed at any time. Even with publicly

traded companies, absent expensive surveys, verification of

ownership is of transitory value. There is no repository whereby

assertions about ownership may be verified or authenticated.

Diligence conducted with Beneficial Ownership Information

• Current state: Scan information against OFAC list and list service to

identify PEPs, etc., based on risk level

• Future state: Scan all information against OFAC list and eventually a

list service to identify PEPs, etc.

‹#›

Controlling Parties and Frequency of Review

Controlling parties are considered those that fund an organization.

Controlling party information is gathered on a risk basis, e.g. with

respect to Non-Governmental Organizations (“NGOs”), due

diligence requires identification and review of the top five

contributors or grantors to the NGO. Review of the information

includes OFAC and World-Check review.

Reviews of Due Diligence:

• Current State: Reviews are done on a periodic (at least annual) basis

with respect to high risk clients. Transaction activity can trigger an

earlier review for high risk clients or an initial review for low risk

clients.

• Future State: Reviews will be done the earlier of (a) whenever a

client uses a new product or service or (b) a predetermined schedule.

The schedule for review will be shorter for those clients, products,

services or geographies with greater risk; longer for lower risk.

‹#›

Risk Rating and Transaction Monitoring

Current State: Increased scrutiny is given to events and deviations

in transaction value and volume monitoring of high risk clients.

Future state: Anticipate transaction activity will also trigger out-

of-cycle due diligence reviews if deviating from the expected

activity information gathered from the client at on-boarding.

Concern we will monitor: Clients seldom accurately predict

expected activity, not for nefarious reasons, but because clients

pay little attention to such detail. Concerns that future state

monitoring will require excessive infrastructure not commensurate

with the risk involved.

‹#›

Concerns with ANPR

Capturing Beneficial Ownership is of very limited benefit

• As previously mentioned, independent verification of beneficial

ownership of juridical entities is an impossibility. There is no public

registry of ownership against which to test information received.

Books and records are managed by the company itself and, even if the

information you review are all the books and records of the company,

nothing prevents the company from changing ownership of the

company the next day

• The value of the information is dependent upon the honesty of the

person giving the information. Our experience is that those seeking to

abuse the financial system tend to be the least honest.

• Absent a universal rule applicable to banks, those undertaking

methods to capture this information are perceived publicly as less

customer friendly and those seeking to abuse the system find the path

of least resistance.

The OneKYC operating model identifies the types of participation across functions in completing the component

pieces of Citi’s AML Program.

Program Overview

OneKYC

The central guiding principle of the program is to move from current Sector-centric KYC processes and systems to a Client-

centric, “One-Bank” approach where clients of the same type are treated consistently regardless of which business services them:

Today, AML client types are addressed differently based on which business/region owns the client.

Client risk-ratings may be different in various countries or business units.

Beneficial Ownership

A beneficial owner is any person, including a natural person or

an entity, that can exercise some level of control, directly or

indirectly through influence or other means, over an account or a

non-account product or service (collectively “account”) and is not

necessarily the same as the named accountholder. For the

purposes of this Standard, the term “accountholder” also

includes individuals who are non-accountholders but to whom

Citi provides products or services. The Ultimate Beneficial

Owner (UBO) of an account is the natural person with actual

(i.e., explicit) or effective (i.e., implicit) control over the account

1. Actual control is derived from explicit authority over the

account and its assets

2. Effective control may be derived from an individual’s role

with respect to the account or the accountholder entity, or

from a level of ownership in the account assets or

accountholder entity that confers such control

Effective Control UBO

2(a) Roles that establish actual control through a formal

mandate of authority.

Executive

management

2(b) Roles that may carry no formal mandate of authority

but confer effective control through authority of a significant

portion of the assets of the entity.

Shareholders at

10% or greater

ownership

2(c) Roles that carry no formal mandate of authority over,

or entitlement to, the assets of an account or accountholder

entity, but may still permit the exercise of effective control

through influence and other indirect means.

AML Unit Risk

The risk of ML/TF activity is directly related to the type of business carried out

by its units and the products and services they offer.

Santander classifies its units and business lines by ML/TF risk, enabling the

Bank to tailor policies, procedures and controls to better mitigate such risks.

For example: • Consumer Finance Low Risk

• Insurance Low Risk

• Retail Banking Medium to Low Risk

• Domestic Private Banking Medium to High Risk

• International Private Banking High Risk

Santander also classifies the countries of jurisdiction of its units by AML/TF

risk. • At the Corporate level a country may be considered High Risk, but that doesn´t

mean that the bank in that country has to consider all of its clients as High Risk.

• For example: Mexico, Colombia…

The Santander corporate policy requires that all Group entities identify and verify identity

of all individuals who own or control, directly or indirectly, more than 25% of the equity

interest in an entity or that effectively manage or control the entity.

Santander applies a risk-based approach:

• Minimum 25% equity interest for all lines of business, with the exception of:

• Domestic Private Banking: minimum 25% equity interest for Medium and Low

risk clients; 10% for High Risk clients.

• International Private Banking: 10% equity interest for all clients, regardless of

their risk rating. For widely held entities with shareholders who own less than

10%, we´ll identify up to 60% of ownership or the top 10 shareholders.

• We analyze and apply CIP to all entities up the chain.

Gradual phase in for Group entities that don´t currently comply with these requirements.

Tailored to country-specific regulatory requirements.
