FFIS Survey Report

Nick J Maxwell, August 2020
A FFIS survey reveals international growth of public–private financial information-sharing partnerships to tackle financial crime, from 2015 to 2020, and describes recent activity directed against COVID-19 crime threats. 

This paper is the result of an international survey of public–private financial information sharing partnerships to disrupt crime, which took place between April and June 2020.

​The report provides descriptive summaries of 23 national and trans-national financial information-sharing partnerships and provides new insights into the impact of such partnerships in tackling financial crime; including their role in responding to COVID-19.

​'The Role of Financial Information-Sharing Partnerships (FISPs) in the Disruption OF Crime'
RUSI Occasional Paper

Nick J Maxwell and David Artingstall, Oct 2017

The volume of suspicious transaction reports submitted by banks and others across key financial centres is growing at 11% per year, with over 2.6 million reports expected to be filed in the UK and the United States in 2017. However, the study finds that between 80% to 90% of this suspicious reporting is not useful to active law enforcement investigations. 

Responding to these challenges, this report examines the emergence of new information-sharing partnerships between financial institutions and law enforcement agencies, set up in a small number of countries, which allow public and private institutions to share insights on terrorist and serious crime threats.
