Bank of America was fined $1.21 billion by US regulators for failing to detect and report suspicious financial transactions exceeding $5 billion. The US Treasury highlighted that over $1 billion involved national security risks. The bank relied too much on external information, delayed reporting, and prioritized revenue over compliance. It must now appoint an independent party to review past transactions and report to FinCEN.
