Know your client and suspicious transaction reports

Gambling companies and financial institutions have policies in place in relation to know your client (KYC) and suspicious transactions that their clients may seemingly engage in.

However recent media reports that allege a lawyer working at Atanaskovic Hartnell transferred millions of dollars from a client into his personal bank account and into his personal betting accounts raise questions as to whether the relevant financial institutions and betting companies actually investigated such transactions which would at the least by virtue of the quantum be classified as being unusual and suspicious.
