Case Study – AML Transaction Monitoring
Case Study: AML Transaction Monitoring (1/2)
• Develop and validate the current standardized customer segmentation model for a large bank holding company
headquartered in the UK
Objective • Develop a methodology to determine thresholds for each segment
• Develop and execute scenarios to generate alerts and transactions, by tuning the parameters for thresholds
Client Impact
Portfolio II
• The implementation was done globally across countries, with
Portfolio X Portfolio IV integration of local regulations

• The bank was able to meet the timelines of this validation
Portfolio V
• The suite of tools developed could be reused (with little or no
Portfolio III Portfolio I modifications) for future validation exercises
• Risks associated with failed segments were quickly mitigated
• Coverage redundancy reduced due to improved segmentation and
CRISIL scenario tuning
Validation • False positives reduced by 5% due to threshold tuning
Standar-
dization Framework
Execution Highlights
Segmentation Validation:
Para- • Generalized Validation Framework
meterized
Developed a suite for validating the segmentation model for
standardized segments and risks for different portfolios
Automation Gained an in-depth understanding of various input parameters for
different portfolios to derive common ‘plug-in’ solution for
validation tasks
• Automated Reports
Produced automated validation reports for portfolios
Automated deep dives for root-cause analysis for segmentation
validation failures
Validation Root Cause
Provided scalable reporting aspects to monitor/include additional

Threshold Tuning Approach Execution Highlights
Threshold Review & Tuning
Thresholds • Variation in parameters’ thresholds
• Determine relevant basis population for each scenario
based on
Scenarios • Tunable parameters changed Transactional level scenarios
Non-transactional level scenarios
• Genuine alerts
• Derive and validate thresholds based on tunable

Alerts
• False positives
parameters to ensure alert rules for scenarios are met
• Have a QC process to verify the threshold bands selected
Scenario Tuning Approach and to verify events and alerts generation
Scenario Testing & Tuning
Region Channel
• Scenario development/modifications based on the
Customer Risk
following parameters (not extensive)
Data Business
Activity Customer segment
Geographies, channels and risk levels
Line of banking business
• Script development Amendable transaction patterns
Scenario • Script validation
Development
• Scenario Validation to confirm
• Default and below threshold
analysis Business requirements, specifications and
transaction/alert counts are met within the select
scenario
Coverage and redundancy aspects between scenarios
• Accuracy
QC & • Develop a threshold table for each scenario to analyze or
• False positives
Tuning • Coverage redundancy modify parameter threshold based on feedback
