Question: How many branches in 2014 did the financial institution that sponsors the AFL Rising Stars have?
Context: A bank account is a financial account maintained by a financial institution for a customer.  A bank account can be a deposit account, a credit card account, a current account, or any other type of account offered by a financial institution, and represents the funds that a customer has entrusted to the financial institution and from which the customer can make withdrawals.  Alternatively, accounts may be loan accounts in which case the customer owes money to the financial institution. In financial regulation, a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) or Suspicious Transaction Report (STR) is a report made by a financial institution about suspicious or potentially suspicious activity.  The criteria to decide when a report must be made varies from country to country but generally is any financial transaction that does not make sense to the financial institution, is unusual for that particular client or appears to be done only for the purpose of hiding or obfuscating a transaction.  The report is filed with that country's financial crime enforcement unit, which is typically a specialist agency designed to collect and analyse transactions and report these to relevant law enforcement units.  Front line staff in the financial institution have the responsibility to identify transactions that may be suspicious and these are reported to a designated person that is responsible for the reporting the transaction.  The financial institution is not allowed to inform the client or the parties to the transaction that a SAR has been lodged. Physical science is a branch of natural science that studies non-living systems, in contrast to life science.  It in turn has many branches, each referred to as a "physical science", together called the "physical sciences".  However, the term "physical" creates an unintended, somewhat arbitrary distinction, since many branches of physical science also study biological phenomena and branches of chemistry such as organic chemistry.

A concentration account is a sole account used for the internal purposes of a financial institution to facilitate the processing and settlement of multiple or individual customer transactions within the institution, usually on the same day.  Such accounts can lead to the concealment by financial institutions of transactions made by customers.  However section 325 of Title III of the USA PATRIOT Act banned their use for such purposes by prohibiting financial institutions from allowing clients to direct transactions that move their funds into, out of, or through the concentration accounts of the financial institution; and prohibit the financial institutions from informing clients about the existence of such accounts and disallows any disclosure that may allow a customer a way of identifying such accounts that the financial institution may use.  Section 325 also requires that financial institutions document and follow methods of identifying where the funds are for each customer in a concentration account that comingles funds belonging to one or more customers. The Money Laundering Control Act of 1986 (Public Law 99-570) is a United States Act of Congress that made money laundering a federal crime.  It was passed in 1986.  It consists of two sections, and .  It for the first time in the United States criminalized money laundering.  Section 1956 prohibits individuals from engaging in a financial transaction with proceeds that were generated from certain specific crimes, known as “specified unlawful activities” (SUAs).  Additionally, the law requires that an individual specifically intend in making the transaction to conceal the source, ownership or control of the funds.  There is no minimum threshold of money, nor is there the requirement that the transaction succeed in actually disguising the money.  Moreover, a “financial transaction” has been broadly defined, and need not involve a financial institution, or even a business.  Merely passing money from one person to another, so long as it is done with the intent to disguise the source, ownership, location or control of the money, has been deemed a financial transaction under the law.  Section 1957 prohibits spending in excess of $10,000 derived from an SUA, regardless of whether the individual wishes to disguise it.  This carries a lesser penalty than money laundering, and unlike the money laundering statute, requires that the money pass through a financial institution.
