establish an independent testing program and develop policies and
procedures to govern staffing and training for Bank Secrecy Act
compliance.
According to the Company, The Bancorp Bank took this action without
admitting or denying any charges of unsafe or unsound banking practices
or violations of law or regulation relating to weaknesses in its Bank
Secrecy Act Compliance Program. Following this news, Bancorp's share
