美国当局周四表示,道明银行(TD Bank)的两个部门已承认美国的刑事指控,并同意支付合计 30 亿美元的罚金,以解决联邦政府的洗钱调查。当局表示,认罪协议包括对该银行的业务施加资产上限和其他限制。美国司法部表示,该银行已承认密谋洗钱和密谋不提交准确报告或不遵守反洗钱计划。
由美国货币监理署(Office of the Comptroller of the Currency)规定的资产上限是一种罕见的措施,通常只适用于严重的案件。这将对道明银行造成重大打击,因为道明银行一直在寻求进一步扩大在美国的业务,而美国约占道明银行收入的三分之一。
道明银行还同意向美国银行业监管机构、司法部和财政部金融犯罪执法网络支付合计 30 亿美元的罚款。
United States authorities said Thursday that two divisions of TD Bank have pleaded guilty to United States criminal charges and agreed to pay a total of $3 billion in fines to settle the federal government's money laundering investigation. The plea agreement includes imposing asset caps and other restrictions on the bank's operations, authorities said. The United States Department of Justice said the bank has admitted to conspiracy to commit money laundering and conspiracy not to file accurate reports or to comply with anti-money laundering programs.
Asset caps, set by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency in the United States, are a rare measure that usually only applies to serious cases. This would be a major blow to TD Bank, which has been looking to further expand its presence in United States, United States which accounts for about one-third of the bank's revenue.
TD Bank also agreed to pay a total of $3 billion in fines to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network of United States banking regulators, the Department of Justice and the Treasury Department.
