Case Study:
Multi-national Bank Looks into Sources of Wealth of a Non-resident Alien and Foreign Individual Customer. The client, a large multi-national investment bank, approached Worldwide Network Investigations for a due diligence review on an individual who had an existing relationship within the client’s private wealth business. Our client noted recent suspicious activities on the subject’s account and that the account had been opened prior to the client’s adoption of stringent due diligence requirements. Though public record reviews revealed no information to verify that the subject was in fact affiliated with his stated corporate affiliations, our discreet inquiries with trusted sources revealed that the subject, although never formerly investigated or charged with criminal offences, was believed to be connected to organized criminal activities. Our findings concluded that the subject’s wealth had derived from corrupt activities and illegitimate business practices that also included the bank from which funds derived.
