The Treasury Department’s Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) levied a $65 million civil penalty against Los Angeles-based City National Bank over alleged risk management and internal control failures.
City National failed to comply with heightened standards for certain large insured national banks and violated the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), the OCC said in a press release Wednesday.
As part of the settlement, the bank agreed to a cease-and-desist order requiring broad and comprehensive corrective actions to improve its strategic plan, operational risk management, internal controls, and compliance risk management. The OCC’s consent order requires the bank’s board appoint a compliance committee.
