Organisations participating in countering money laundering and terrorism:
Financial Intelligence Unit
The Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) prevents, detects and investigates money laundering and terrorist financing, and refers cases to criminal investigation.
The FIU receives, processes and analyses suspicious transaction reports made by entities obliged to report money laundering and terrorist financing, and disseminates relevant information to other competent authorities in Finland.
The Financial Supervisory Authority
Finanssivalvonta, or the Financial Supervisory Authority (FIN-FSA), is the authority for supervision of Finland’s financial and insurance sectors. The entities supervised by the authority include banks, insurance and pension companies as well as other companies operating in the insurance sector, investment firms, fund management companies and the Helsinki Stock Exchange. The entities we supervise are obliged to know their customers’ business, detect and examine suspicious transactions, and report any such suspicions to the FIN-FSA and the Financial Intelligence Unit.
