· Request additional information by contacting various compliance or business personnel throughout the organization to determine if facts and circumstances surrounding unusual transactions warrant closure of the investigation as not suspicious or if escalation for further investigation is warranted.
· Prepare reports using Excel to display transaction flow of payments and/or other payment activities.
· Create and document comprehensive investigation files which must be completed and self-contained so that readers (law enforcement, examiners, audit, management) can clearly determine why the investigation was started, how it was carried out, and why the conclusion that was/is recommended was/is being made;
· Continuous monitoring of the open alerts in Actimize until a determination can be made to close or escalate to L2 in a timely manner;
