Something About Us

The Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) was first established in 2004 under the Money Laundering Prevention Act of 2000, which was since repealed and replaced by the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) Act No. 13 of 2009.

The core functions of the FIU are outlined under section 9(1) of the AML/CFT Act.  These include requesting, receiving, analyzing, and disseminating information on suspicious transaction reports and other information relating to money laundering, terrorist financing, or the proceeds of crime.
