Money laundering reporting officers are able to submit a suspicious transaction report electronically thanks to a new feature of the Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit’s redesigned website.

By being uploaded on the website, the officers’ report will be submitted to an FIAU-designated server securely.

The FIAU is a government agency responsible for the collection, collation, processing, analysis and dissemination of information with a view to combating money laundering and the funding of terrorism.

The website’s new design allows for the submission of other documentation that is required of people subject to the Prevention of Money Laundering and Funding of Terrorism Regulations (Legal Notice 180 of 2008). Documents include the annual compliance report and the MLRO details sheet. Templates for these documents, which have been streamlined and updated, are available on the website.

In its newest guise, the portal also offers quick and easy access to essential information related to the prevention of money laundering and funding of terrorism. It forms an integral part of the FIAU’s ongoing efforts to enhance the availability of such information to subject persons and other interested parties.

The website boasts a new contemporary design and features several sections. Besides outlining information on the FIAU, it includes access to important legislative provisions, the relevant court orders, the public documents issued by the Financial Action Task Force, results of the mutual evaluation exercises carried out locally, as well as several useful links.
