A customer deposits $12,000 in cash in a single business day. The firm must file:
a.A Suspicious Activity Report only
b.A Currency Transaction Report
c.Form 1099-B with the IRS
d.Nothing, because the deposit is under $25,000
Explanation
Currency transactions of more than $10,000 in one business day trigger a Currency Transaction Report under the Bank Secrecy Act, regardless of whether anything appears suspicious. A SAR is required only when the activity itself raises suspicion. Form 1099-B reports proceeds of sales, not deposits.
