TD's historic money-laundering settlement with the Justice Department notably did not feature jail time for any executives. That's not because the case isn't a big deal: "The fact that the bank was not only guilty of violating the BSAs — call them, preventative and reporting controls — but went a step further in violating the foundational, oldest money laundering law on the books in the United States in actually conspiring, agreeing to launder money is really remarkable," said Scott Greytak, Director of Advocacy at Transparency International. "It's got to be one of the top three dirty money stories I've seen in the last five years or so … right up there with the Pandora papers and stories of Russian oligarchs being able to use gaps in our AML framework to move dirty money into the US." Ebrima Santos Sanneh has the story for American Banker.

UPDATE: Truist said Thursday that it expects its 2025 revenue to outpace expenses. If achieved, that would mark the bank's first year of positive operating leverage since 2022. CEO Bill Rogers told analysts that the expectation is "based on the current momentum" within Truist's lines of business as well as "confidence" in employees and the franchise as a whole. Business lines such as investment banking are gaining traction, loan demand should pick up, deposit costs should decline, and Truist has "a good handle" on its expenses, he said. All of those factors should be beneficial, he said. "We're going to manage them all really tightly and really well, with a focus on achieving that positive operating leverage," Rogers said.

Kristy Fercho, senior executive vice president and head of diverse segments, representation and inclusion at Wells Fargo, said that while other companies backed off their diversity, equity and inclusion commitments last year, her bank did not. “We are absolutely committed to continuing to drive this broad culture of representation. It's who we are; it's how we think; it's how we want to drive our decisions,” she said.

Former President Donald Trump has put the Federal Reserve Board's independence on the ballot. The Republican nominee has repeatedly said that, if re-elected, he should have a say over monetary policy. Based on a recent survey of banking executives conducted by IntraFi, it seems there is an appetite among bankers for reforming the Fed, but not in the way Trump wants. See my latest for American Banker for the full details from the survey, including what bankers see as the biggest risks to profit margins and their outlook on funding costs moving forward. https://lnkd.in/edCC8dMp

There is a tendency to assume that banks carrying a large commercial real estate loan portfolio need to diversify. But that ignores the fact that many of those institutions have much deeper knowledge of the market than their critics, writes Adam Mustafa, of Invictus Group, in American Banker’s BankThink. https://bit.ly/4eMVSh4
