Suspicious Activity Report
A report filed by financial institutions when they suspect a transaction may involve money laundering, terrorist financing, or other illegal activities.
Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) are a key tool in the fight against financial crime.
When a financial institution identifies a transaction that appears suspicious, they are required to file a SAR with the appropriate regulatory authority.
SARs provide valuable intelligence to law enforcement and help detect and prevent illicit financial activities.
