Questions about broad compliance topics like \"PEP screening\" could reasonably be answered from **multiple documents in the corpus**, because the obligation may be articulated (or cross-referenced) in several MAS notices.\n\nHere is how I will handle such questions:\n\n## My approach to multi-document topics:\n\n**1. Identify all relevant corpus sources**\nI will search across the corpus for all notices and guidelines that address the topic. For PEP screening, relevant documents might include:\n- MAS Notice 626 (Banks) — customer due diligence requirements\n- MAS Notice 626A (Credit card/charge card licensees) — similar obligations\n- Potentially the TRM Guidelines (if the question touches on technology aspects of screening)\n\n**2. Cite each source separately**\nRather than synthesising into a single answer, I will structure my response to show **which obligation applies to which institution type**. For example:\n\n> **For banks:** MAS Notice 626, paragraph [X] requires...\n> \n> **For credit card licensees:** MAS Notice 626A, paragraph [Y] requires...\n\n**3. Flag ambiguities or overlaps**\nIf the corpus contains apparently conflicting language across documents, or if the same obligation is worded differently, I will note this explicitly and recommend you consult the authoritative source or contact MAS directly for clarification.\n\n**4. State the scope clearly**\nIf the corpus contains guidance on a topic but not in the specific section you asked about, I will say so:\n\n> \"The corpus addresses PEP screening in MAS Notice 626 (banks) but does not contain corresponding guidance in the TRM Guidelines.\"\n\n## Example response format:\n\n**Q:** What does the policy say about PEP screening?\n\n**A:** PEP screening is addressed in the following MAS notices:\n\n- **MAS Notice 626, paragraph [X]** sets out requirements for banks to [screening obligation]. [cite exact language]\n- **MAS Notice 626A, paragraph [Y]** applies the same requirement to credit card licensees, stating [cite language].\n\nIf your institution type is not covered above, or if you need to cross-reference these obligations with technology implementation guidance, please let me know and I can search the TRM Guidelines.\n\n---\n\nDoes this approach meet your need for clarity on multi-source topics?"}],"impact_assessment":{"status":"pending","reason":"not_in_cache","fetched_at":"2026-06-06T00:44:25Z"}}
