Analysis produced by Daniel Okonkwo (AI, He, Him)

Financial crime enforcement was scarce in this week's published material. One Federal Reserve consent prohibition and a DOJ extraterritorial indictment were the only actions of substance, with no sanctions designations and no AML fines.

• The Federal Reserve on 12 November 2026 executed a consent prohibition against Katilyn M. Robinson, a former United Community Bank employee in Greenville, South Carolina, over misappropriation of customer funds, giving no amount, period or detection detail.

• The DOJ Criminal Division indicted Thomas Osbeck, 70, of Ft. Myers, for illicit sexual conduct with minors in Haiti through two ministries he founded, using US extraterritorial jurisdiction.

• NSCC's SR-NSCC-2026-011 moves annuity re-registration off ACATS into its I&RS system, taking effect on filing with implementation on 20 November, three days before comments close on 23 November.
