Velocity cannabis monitoring system delivers accelerated screening of Cannabis-Related Businesses (CRB) with an integrated alert system. This module comes equipped with the international matching technique, fuzzy logic, which can be used to identify cannabis-related organizations as well as individual entities. With faster processing of CRB Monitor lists and exponentially reducing ‘false matches’, the task of the investigation by analysts has never been easier.
Financial institutions have a decision to make
Although many states have legalized the use of Cannabis, it remains illegal under federal law. Financial institutions are thus, skeptical about being in business with marijuana-related ventures.
(a) CRBs are highly regulated businesses from seed to distribution
(b) These services carry a high risk of questionability and controversy
The biggest risk thus lies with not correctly identifying CRBs and eventually leading to be in business with them which increases the likelihood of financial institutions breaching regulatory guidelines.
To avoid being penalized for aiding and abetting a federal crime, the entire responsibility lies on banks to perform thorough customer due diligence and alert FinCEN analysts if such a transaction transpires.
Velocity’s cannabis monitoring module allows faster scanning of CRB Monitor Lists against transaction and customer data and generates prompt alerts. Financial institutions are thus equipped with enough data to make an informed decision quickly and efficiently.
