H.4: Money Laundering

Disrupt and dismantle the most significant money laundering institutions and facilities.

Other Information:

The FBI will target the most significant corrupt money laundering industries and facilities in the United States by increasing the cost of criminal activity, creating barriers to entry of illegal proceeds into the financial community, developing national strategies to address the mechanisms and industries commonly used to launder funds, and by reducing the flow of criminal assets through seizure and forfeiture. Priority Actions: Expand the intelligence base to identify methodologies, geographic anomalies with domestic and international criminal proceeds, and significant money laundering enterprises, industries and facilities. Conduct worldwide investigations that result in the dismantlement of those enterprises, industries, and facilities engaged in significant money laundering. Incorporate research and analysis software products into the overall intelligence base. Increase the number of human sources reporting on significant money laundering activities. Ensure potential money laundering strategies are incorporated into counterterrorism and criminal enterprise investigations to maximize asset forfeiture potential. Provide extensive training to the entire Law Enforcement Community to promote the use of asset forfeiture and money laundering statutes in all investigations.
