About the Role

UMB’s Anti-Money Laundering (AML) obligations are established by a critical set of regulations that financial institutions must follow to protect our institutions and communities from those would seek to exploit the U.S. financial system to commit crimes against the state or others. Law enforcement considers the intel received from U.S. financial institutions to be vital to its efforts to protect our communities. Those who thrive on the AML team can detect transactions that are out of pattern for the customer, or which may evidence an attempt to hide the true nature of the activity. Team members must be analytical, good at conducting research on customers and transactions, and collaborative with other team members or associates at UMB.

The AML team at UMB operates in a fast-paced environment where we are involved in assessing UMB’s customers and their transactions.

As an intern, you will receive training on how to review transactions, how to identify things that are unusual for the customer, where to look for additional information, and how to escalate matters for higher level review. Time permitting, the AML intern could participate in learning about currency transaction reporting, Enhanced Due Diligence, and other relevant AML topics/tasks.
