a financial institution must perform a continuing review of the account for a period of 90 days. The continuing review must include an analysis of any transactions that occur in the account, as well as any changes in the customer's risk profile.

Private investment companies (PICs) are potentially vulnerable to money laundering due to the difficulty in identifying the ultimate beneficial owners. PICs are often used to hold and manage private wealth, making them attractive targets for money launderers. Since these entities are privately held and not publicly traded, it can be challenging to identify the individuals who ultimately control or benefit from them. This makes it easier for money launderers to use them to disguise the origins of illicit funds.

PEPs are recognized by CAMS 6th Edition and FATF as posing elevated risk due to:

* C. PEPs may exploit embassy activities to conceal bribery and corruption transactions:"PEPs may use their position or diplomatic privileges, such as embassy operations, to disguise or facilitate the movement of illicit funds."(CAMS 6th Edition, Corruption and PEP Risks) Incorrect Options:
* B: There is no such legal provision granting PEPs financial immunity or unlimited credit.
* D: Banks may (and often must) exit PEP relationships not in line with their risk appetite.
