Politically Exposed Persons: Discussion

Mr. Brendan Bruen:

I very much take the point that as much clarity in the area as is possible would be desirable. When it comes to family members, there is, necessarily, a different risk categorisation. While there may be a good reason that family members are covered in terms of due diligence, that it is not perhaps on the same automatic basis that it would otherwise be.
