FATF and CAMS 6th Edition highlight certain third-party activities as red flags for money laundering in the life insurance sector:

Payments are regularly received from third parties that have no apparent relationship with the policy holder (C):“Red flags include payments made by third parties, especially where there is no apparent connection between the third party and the policy holder.”(FATF, Risk-Based Approach for Life Insurance Sector, Section IV: Red Flags; CAMS 6th Edition, Customer Due Diligence for Life Insurance)

A customer names an apparently unrelated third party as a beneficiary (D):“Another warning sign is when beneficiaries have no apparent relation to the policyholder.”(FATF, Ibid; CAMS 6th Edition, Life Insurance ML/TF Red Flags)

Incorrect Options:

A: Consulting an attorney is not, by itself, a red flag.

B: Policy transfer may warrant review but is not specifically a red flag for third-party involvement.
