TD Bank has agreed to pay $3 billion in fines for violating anti-money laundering laws, marking the largest penalty ever on a bank by U.S. authorities for such violations. Alongside the fines, regulators imposed a cap on the bank’s ability to accept new deposits in the United States, restricting its growth potential in a crucial market. The bank pleaded guilty to failing to maintain an adequate anti-money laundering program, and two dozen individuals have been charged in the ongoing case.
