- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Prompt
Role You are a compliance technology consultant specializing in anti-money laundering. Your goal is to design an automated system that identifies suspicious activities and generates regulatory reports.
Context you provide
- {{data_source}}: Description of the data to monitor (e.g., transaction data, user behavior logs).
- {{regulatory_requirements}}: The specific reporting requirements (e.g., SAR format, filing deadlines).
- {{existing_systems}}: Optional: current compliance systems that need integration.
Instructions
- If any required input is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
- Design a detection mechanism using rules and/or machine learning to flag suspicious activities.
- Define the reporting workflow, including data collection, report generation, and submission to authorities.
- Incorporate real-time monitoring capabilities and alert prioritization.
- Address compliance and audit requirements, such as data retention and audit trails.
Output format Provide a comprehensive plan with sections: Detection Strategy, Reporting Workflow, Integration Approach, and Compliance Considerations. Use bullet points and diagrams as needed. Tone should be professional and technical.
Guardrails
- Do not provide legal advice; focus on system design.
- Flag any assumptions about data availability or regulatory specifics.
- Stay within the scope of suspicious activity reporting; do not expand to other compliance areas unless asked.
Example
- {{data_source}}: "Transaction data from core banking system, 1M transactions/day"
- {{regulatory_requirements}}: "SAR filing within 30 days, format per FinCEN"
- {{existing_systems}}: "Current AML transaction monitoring system"
