Section 2 — Financial Information
Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On October 18, 2005, KeyCorp conducted a conference call/webcast to discuss its quarterly earnings and currently anticipated earnings trends. The slide presentation reviewed by KeyCorp in the conference call/webcast follows as Annex A to this Item 2.02.
On October 18, 2005, KeyCorp issued a press release announcing its earnings results for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005. This press release, dated October 18, 2005, is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
Section 8 — Other Events
Item 8.01 Other Events
KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of KeyCorp, announced today that it has consented to the issuance of a consent order (“Order”) from the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) pursuant to which KeyBank is required to improve its compliance and operations infrastructure designed to detect and prevent money laundering under the Bank Secrecy Act (“BSA”). At the same time, KeyCorp entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland (“FRB”) covering compliance with the BSA and other related matters. Neither the OCC nor the FRB imposed a fine or civil money penalty in connection with these actions.
As part of the Order, KeyBank has agreed to strengthen its BSA internal controls, including the development and implementation of enhanced policies and procedures for BSA compliance; to enhance its programs and controls for Suspicious Activity Reporting; to enhance its BSA audit functions and its independent audit program; and to improve employee training relating to the detection and prevention of money laundering. KeyCorp and its KeyBank subsidiary have already taken significant steps to strengthen the organizations’ compliance policies and procedures, and operations infrastructure in areas related to those specified in the Order and the MOU, as well as in other respects. Management is committed to ensuring that all of the requirements of these regulatory actions are met.
Management does not expect the actions to have a material impact on KeyBank’s or KeyCorp’s financial condition or results of operations. However, KeyBank has incurred additional expenses related to making the improvements necessary to strengthen its BSA operations and compliance, and expects that some increased expenses in connection with these regulatory actions may be incurred in the future. The actions may also have some impact on KeyCorp’s ability to engage in certain acquisitions while the Order and MOU are outstanding.
A copy of the OCC Order may be obtained at the OCC website: www.occ.treas.gov/.
