Observations

Last week, Toronto-Dominion Bank's (TD) proposed acquisition of First Horizon was called off due to regulatory concerns over TD's anti-money laundering practices.

The concern stems from TD's handling of unusual transactions in recent years and the time it took for them to be brought to the attention of U.S. authorities, said people familiar with the matter. TD had promised to improve its anti-money laundering policies, but it was not enough to secure regulatory approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Reserve.
