Money Laundering: Progress Report on Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network
Letter Report, 11/08/93, GAO/GGD-94-30
GAO Report in PDF Format [1.96 Mb] The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, part of the Department of the Treasury, distributes a variety of financial data to help federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies combat money laundering. Since its inception less than four years ago, the network has been receiving a steadily increasing volume of requests for intelligence data. Similarly, the number of individual agencies requesting these data has continued to rise each year. The network also provides strategic intelligence analyses that identify emerging trends, patterns, and issues relating to money laundering. Law enforcement groups use these reports for everything from instructional seminars to threat assessments of specific geographic areas. Although some of its work is self-initiated, the network is receiving more and more requests from other agencies for specific types of strategic analyses. --------------------------- Indexing Terms ----------------------------- REPORTNUM: GGD-94-30 TITLE: Money Laundering: Progress Report on Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network DATE: 11/08/93 SUBJECT: Money laundering Agency missions Intelligence gathering operations Investigations by federal agencies Law enforcement Law enforcement agencies Crimes or offenses Crime prevention Operations analysis Computerized information systems IDENTIFIER: Treasury Financial Crimes Enforcement Network Treasury Enforcement Communications System Treasury Financial Crimes Enforcement Network Financial Institution and Regulatory Agencies Criminal Referral Enforcement System ************************************************************************ See the GAO FAQ - Section 2.0 for printed copy ordering information.
