the Virtual Merchant Server. The Virtual Merchant server connects with the
network for payment authorization and, if the sale is authorized, the
program prints or returns a receipt for the customer. E-mail messages to
confirm the order can be sent to customers and the merchant as a notice of
a new sale. To finalize the sale, fulfill the order and login to the server
and select sale for payment processing.

The AML UK Enhancement Programme, which was delivered in 2013, had to de-
scope several key initiatives including this one due to time scale
constraints. Currently the Real time Scorecard is run at the appropriate
point in the on boarding process for the on boarding systems used by HSBC
bank (RBWM and CMB), and M&S bank, for a decision pertaining to the
application being on boarded. Decision during on boarding includes credit
referral decisions as well as account opening decisions. Depending on the
decision and the AML risk that has been calculated by the real time
scorecard, Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) will be carried out for the
customer during on boarding if required.
The CDD Programme will ensure that customers that pose too great a risk,
including specified categories of prohibited customers, are not on-boarded,
that customers will be accurately risk rated, and that the information and
documentation obtained in the CDD process will facilitate the investigation
and identification of unusual and suspicious customer activity. As the CDD
process must continue over the life of a customer relationship, the CDD
Standards also provide requirements for risk-based periodic and event
driven CDD reviews.
