FinCEN recently published its FinCEN Year in Review for FY 2025. The Year in Review is intended to help stakeholders gain insight into both FinCEN’s efforts to support law enforcement and national security agencies and how financial information is used.
According to FinCEN’s press release, in fiscal year 2025, the agency used its authorities to advance key national security and law enforcement priorities, including combating drug trafficking, increasing pressure on Iran, fighting child exploitation, and addressing fraud. It also continued efforts to modernize the U.S. AML/CFT framework and support the Treasury Department’s push for the responsible growth of digital assets.
The report includes FinCEN’s key accomplishments, including:
$10 billion saved due to de-regulatory actions;
90% increase in value BSA information of surveyed law enforcement, intelligence, and other partners;
596 events to engage and train key stakeholders on AML/CFT topics; and
$991 million returned to victims of fraud reported to the Rapid Rsponse Program since 2015.
