For many of these entities, an individual in-depth analysis of all customers, accounts, products and services in not very feasible, given that the numbers of each may be significant and more than the capacity of the organization to deliver. Accordingly, a risk management program will help to identify and narrow down where the focus of attention should be.

A good AML Risk Management program will also better satisfy regulatory requirements.
