The document outlines a comprehensive framework for anti-money laundering (AML) and combating the financing of terrorism (CFT), emphasizing the importance of data collection, reporting, and the establishment of financial intelligence units. It details the evolution of the goAML system developed to facilitate information gathering, analysis, and reporting, ensuring compliance with international standards. The document also includes practical considerations regarding the implementation costs, technical support, and modular functionality necessary for diverse financial intelligence units.

2. Anti Money Laundering, Data Collection and Reporting Information Technology Service External Systems Unit Global Programme against Money Laundering

3. Money Laundering/Terrorist Financing – The World’s Response Establish a global environment hostile to money laundering and terrorist financing Implement international standards including the FATF 40+9 recommendations Establish Financial Intelligence Units around the world Establish protocols and platforms for sharing intelligence and evidence Secure technical assistance for countries to implement international standards Uniform and standard AML platform - desirable

4. Anti-Money Laundering Process Three essential components of an AML/CFT regime: A functional compliance culture Functional regulatory bodies – central Bank, SEC, Insurance Regulator etc An effective financial intelligence unit tasked with: The above processes ideally should be automated particularly if they involve high data volumes

14. goAML – Gathering and Managing Information Secure website (SSL 512 bit encryption) for: Creating reporting entities - by the FIU Creating contacts Changing contact details - by the reporting entity Report upload Report data entry - manually if necessary Report verification - clean up by system

15. goAML – Gathering and Managing Information Report History - what reported - accepted/rejected ref number View uploaded report - Individually Submission status - accepted/rejected Common content for any reporting entity - flexible - secure information from FIU - compliance circulars - alerts - name lists

16. goAML – High Volume Analysis Support analytical and investigation teams with highly sophisticated reporting capabilities. Visualize large volumes of data to help understand the big picture. Monitor potentially suspicious accounts. Reveal patterns and hidden connections. Create analytical charts manually or automatically.

17. Workflow for STR analysis Tasks and the process diagram are defined by the FIU users - can change to suit their own needs - full visual designer Task assignment and tracking - within FIU - push or pull reports by e-mail Integrated reporting - workflow reports - assignments - progress - results goAML – Collecting, Managing and Analyzing Information

18. Integrated source tracking - tracks externally sourced information - creates bring-ups, reminders etc Automatic resource scheduling - automatically assigns tasks - monitors workloads - measures outputs/performance Case feedback integration - Produces standardized feedback - reports as word documents goAML – Collecting, Managing and Analyzing Information

19. Customizable data gathering templates - standardized format for receipt of information from outside agencies that decides transmission medium (email/fax/post) Time in flight analysis - Time management measure goAML – Collecting, Managing and Analyzing Information

20. Common user interface across analysis screens - screens look and feel the same - supports multiple languages Workspace based (keep information through different reporting sessions) - two work spaces available at any one time - previous work automatically saved - supports text, tables, merged tables, pictures goAML – Analysis and Targeting Solution

21. Analyst can retrieve, filter and re-arrange the data accordingly to his/her needs. - Rearrange data fields - Change grouping - Filter data - Change data sorting - Save layout - Export goAML – Analysis and Targeting Solution

22. Linking to other screens from current screen Allows easy comparison of different accounts, persons or entities Each window acts independent of others Copy fields or rows Makes analysis easy Very easy to learn All these components have restricted access goAML – Analysis and Targeting Solution

23. goAML – Analysis Trails Link charts association charts – transaction flow charts etc Money and person trails for inbound and outbound transactions Trail for duplicated addresses, phone numbers and other identification data Displays: - source and destination displayed as nodes - direction and amount displayed as arrows

24. goAML – Analysis - Pivots Reports offer many different views of data under analysis Allows for dynamic user filtering and grouping of related data Allows for searching for TOP targets - 5/10/50 etc Flexible data search capability Simple integration with Excel - excellent for net worth analysis - ease of attachment to intel reports - arrives live so can be manipulated by receiver

25. goAML – Analysis - Intersect Combines data from two different reports - User chooses the two reports populated with data and t he columns to intersect Result is displayed in a completely new window with the intersected data

26. goAML – Information Dissemination Suspicious activity detected Open a new case – analysis output attached goCASE picks this up Export case to MS-WinWord - Case file remains with FIU - Output in the form of Intel report - Sanitised to the level required by the user
