The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) dismissed an enforcement action and withdrew a fine against the former chief compliance officer for the now-defunct U.S. branch of Rabobank N.A.
Acting Comptroller of the Currency Michael Hsu wrote in a final decision Wednesday the agency “reluctantly” decided to drop its case against Laura Akahoshi, Rabobank N.A.’s former CCO and a former OCC bank examiner. The agency alleged Akahoshi participated in an effort in 2013 to withhold information from an OCC examiner regarding a material audit of Rabobank’s Bank Secrecy Act/anti-money laundering (BSA/AML) program.
