*FinCEN Proposes Rule to Combat Illicit Finance and National Security Threats in Investment Adviser Sector*
Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to keep criminals and foreign adversaries from exploiting the U.S. financial system and assets through investment advisers. This proposed rule, which complements Treasury’s other recent actions to combat the illicit finance risks from anonymous companies and all-cash real estate transactions, will add further transparency to the U.S. financial system and help assist law enforcement in identifying illicit proceeds entering the U.S. economy. The proposed rule would require certain investment advisers to apply Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) requirements pursuant to the Bank Secrecy Act, including implementing risk-based AML/CFT programs, reporting suspicious activity to FinCEN, and fulfilling recordkeeping requirements.
