The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) is amending its regulations on the reporting of known or suspected criminal and suspicious activities by the domestic and foreign banking organizations supervised by the Board. This final rule streamlines reporting requirements by providing that such an organization file a new Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) with the Board and the appropriate federal law enforcement agencies by sending a SAR to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network of the Department of the Treasury (FinCEN) to report a known or suspected criminal offense or a transaction that it suspects involves money laundering or violates the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA).
