SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Compliance analysts reviewing transaction monitoring alerts need a complete, ordered account of the facts, but poorly written narratives that jump to conclusions or omit negative findings distort the decision and create regulatory risk. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured fact assembly: Organizes the narrative around what the rule fired on, the triggering transactions with dates, amounts, counterparties and channels, expected activity from onboarding, observed deviations, customer explanations, and prior alert history. - Neutral language enforcement: Keeps the narrative descriptive (e.g., "six transfers of 9,800 over eight days to three new counterparties") and excludes conclusions, typology labels, and filing recommendations. - Negative findings inclusion: Records the checks that found nothing so the analyst knows what has already been examined. - Use Case: A transaction monitoring rule flags a customer for repeated sub-threshold transfers; use this Skill to draft the alert narrative an analyst can decide on without the writer having pre-judged the outcome. ## Quick Start Write the alert narrative for the attached monitoring alert, covering the triggering transactions, expected versus observed activity, prior alerts, and all negative findings.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write an AML alert narrative?▼

Assemble the facts in order: what the rule fired on, the triggering transactions with dates, amounts, counterparties and channels, the customer's expected activity from onboarding, how observed activity differs, any customer explanation, and prior alerts with their closures.

What should an AML alert narrative always include?▼

Always include the negative findings, meaning the checks performed that found nothing. The deciding analyst needs to know what has already been looked at so effort is not duplicated and gaps are visible.

Why should AML narratives avoid words like structuring?▼

Typology names such as structuring are conclusions, not descriptions, and writing them changes what the file means. The narrative should state observable facts, like six transfers of 9,800 over eight days to three new counterparties, and let the analyst conclude.

Can an AML alert narrative recommend filing a SAR?▼

No. The narrative must never reach a conclusion or recommend a filing, because that decision belongs to the reviewing analyst. It also must never tell the customer that monitoring is happening.

What are the limitations of a narrative-only alert review?▼

A narrative assembles and orders facts but does not perform the underlying transaction analysis, customer due diligence, or the final disposition decision. Those steps require separate investigation work and analyst judgment.
