Exactly!

The reverse of that is where due diligence does not exist or is overlooked, "illegal funds" are handled and the regulatory authority closes the bank down within a week and it's customers wait five years to see a dime.

BTW.. The above is exactly what happened in one instance in the last couple of years.
