UK Financial Intelligence Unit (UKFIU)
Law Enforcement
National responsibility for receiving, analysing and disseminating financial intelligence through the SARs regime
About us
The UKFIU has national responsibility for receiving, analysing and disseminating intelligence submitted through the Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) regime. It sits at the heart of the regime, providing the gateway to reporters and a repository of data to inform law enforcement. For the 2019-20 financial year the UKFIU received over 570,000 SARs from over 5,000 organisations. SARs alert law enforcement to potential instances of money laundering or terrorist financing. SARs are made by financial institutions and other professionals such as solicitors, accountants and estate agents and are a vital source of intelligence not only on economic crime but on a wide range of criminal activity. They provide information and intelligence from the private sector that would otherwise not be visible to law enforcement. SARs can also be submitted by private individuals where they have suspicion or knowledge of money laundering or terrorist financing. SARs are not crime or fraud reports; if someone wishes to report a crime or a fraud they should contact either their local police service on 101 or Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040.
