goAML
Money laundering and the financing of terrorism are global problems that can threaten the security and stability of financial institutions and systems, undermine economic prosperity and weaken governance systems.
The
goAML application is a UNODC strategic response to financial crime including money laundering and terrorist financing. The goAML application has been developed by the Information Technology Service of UNODC in partnership with the UNODC Global Programme Against Money Laundering. It is an integrated database and intelligent analysis system intended for use by Financial Intelligence Units worldwide.
Financial Intelligence Units play a leading role in any anti-money laundering regime as they are generally responsible for receiving, processing and analysing reports made by financial institutions or other entities according to the requirements of domestic anti-money laundering laws and regulations. Such reports and other information gathered by FIU's often provide the basis for investigations into money laundering, terrorist financing and other serious offences.
The goAML solution is executed in three steps: collection, analysis (rule-based analysis, risk-score and profiling) and dissemination (escalate to law enforcement and seek feedback). It provides a facility for the rapid exchange of information between the FIU, financial institutions law enforcement and judicial authorities, while ensuring confidentiality of the data collected. The goAML software is designed as a modular system to fit the needs of any FIU irrespective of size.
An FIU receives data from financial institutions and other reporting entities in the form of:
• Cash Transaction Reports (CTR)
• Suspicious Transaction Reports (STR)
• Electronic Funds Transfer Reports (EFT - including International Funds Transfer Reports)
• List-based reports such as reports generated from lists of known terrorist identities.
Using the goAML application these data are either submitted offline (through XML data exchange), online (through uploading the XML data messages) or through filling online forms on the FIU secure website.
The analysis features of goAML provide tactical and strategic support to investigative and analytical teams and utilises highly sophisticated but user friendly reporting features to chart high volumes of data to help understand the big picture. The goAML solution is well suited to both low and high data volume environments.
The goAML system is driven by a security model that specifies the kind of access rights each user has by providing an audit trail and log details of every transaction performed by each user.
