I mean that, I hope he has good luck, but I very much suspect the reply will be "we don't know what report you're talking about and we don't know anything about any suspicious transactions".

The one exception may be JP Morgan Chase, and that's because they were already successfully sued for $290,000,000 by a group of survivors, and by the US Virgin Islands for $40M+. This means they've probably already opened their books in the way Raskin is asking for.

The survivors primary winning gambit in that JPMC case was that Epstein was so frequently taking out large sums of cash money, it should raised red flags from the bank. Presumably, the victims showed (or at least credibly claimed) that some or all of these regular $10K in cash withdrawals (like weekly I think it was at one time) was being used to pay for his "massages". Therefore the bank was guilty of malfeasance for not having done something they legally should have in such instances (I'm not sure what that would be, but it was apparently "something" ).

Not sure how these things all work, but I wonder if Raskin might have more luck by contacting the court in which that trial took place and/or the survivors attorney(s), because as I say, JPMC obviously divulged enough financial stuff in that civil case for them to end up on the losing end of a $290M settlement.
