It is difficult to avoid potential liability for money laundering activities that were knowingly facilitated at a bank. Depending on the severity of your participation, there are possible steps you can take to mitigate the consequences, such as immediately reporting any suspicious activity or suspicion of illegal behavior to appropriate authorities and refusing any orders from management that involve breaking the law. Having records of all your communications and transactions may also help provide protection from culpability.

It is important to take all necessary steps to make sure that you do not actively or tacitly participate in money laundering activities. Ensure that you have documented evidence of your awareness of the bank's policies and legal responsibilities as it relates to money laundering. If possible, report any instances of suspicious activity to your superiors and cooperate with any investigations. This may help protect you from liability if charges are filed against the institution for money laundering.
