I'm saying that the bank gets royally fucked if they ever tell anyone who is even suspected of money laundering anything, so as a result they simply don't tell anyone anything. Whether the GP actually did it or not isn't really relevant because banks would rather lose a customer than incur the regulator's ire.

I’m sure you know this, but it’s not just regulator’s ire. It is a criminal act in and of itself to disclose that someone is a target of an investigation.

And it’s not just a criminal act for the organisation, but the individual customer service agent can be held personally criminally liable for disclosing, even accidentally.

So yeah, they have a really strong incentive not to tell you anything.

Ah I see, thank you.
