FCMN works to establish and strengthen mechanisms for the exchange of information globally, and to engage, encourage, and support international partners in taking necessary steps to construct regimes to combat money laundering, terrorist financing, and other financial crimes. FCMN responds to requests from financial intelligence units (FIUs) that are its partner, and acts as a conduit for requests from domestic law enforcement to foreign FIUs. FCMN also issues strategic products for law enforcement agencies and FIUs on topics of international interest.
FCMN works with foreign governments to provide policy recommendations and guidance, analytical training, technological advice, and staff support in order to foster the implementation of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CFT) regimes worldwide. FCMN supports U.S. bilateral and multilateral efforts to join with other nations in a concerted fashion to combat transnational crime.
