NEWS: TD Bank warned to avoid its AML woes spiralling into existential crisis

STRICTURES: National Bank analyst Gabriel Dechaine wrote in a note on TD's woes that regulators could also contemplate the type of asset cap. U.S. regulators in 2018 imposed a cap on Wells Fargo that would restrict loan growth. "If growth here is restricted, TD could deliver sub-par earnings growth relative to peers over the next several years," Dechaine wrote.
