Suspicious activity reports built from data you already hold

DetectX® Regulatory Reporting turns an alert and the data in your systems into a report for your Financial Intelligence Unit, in the goAML XML structure it requires. The client, accounts and transactions are filled in for you, the analyst reviews and completes the facts, and every report is kept in one inventory.

The DetectX® Approach

The report starts where the investigation ended.

A suspicious activity report is the notice a regulated firm files with its Financial Intelligence Unit when it suspects money laundering or terrorist financing. Many FIUs receive these reports through goAML. DetectX® prepares them in the goAML XML structure from the alert and the client, account and transaction data your bank already holds.

From an alert to a report your FIU can read. A report starts from the alert or investigation, or from scratch. Regulatory Reporting fills it from the client, account and transaction data you already hold, and produces it in the goAML XML structure.

Key Benefits & Impact

A submission nobody can reconstruct is not a defensible submission.

Regulatory Reporting builds each report from records you already hold, in the structure your Financial Intelligence Unit expects, and keeps every report it builds. Your analysts write the facts, not the account numbers.

No Retyping

Your analysts write the facts, not the account numbers.

The client, the products and accounts they used and their transaction history are carried into the report from the data you already hold. The analyst’s time goes on the presentation of the facts and the reason for suspicion.

Reports that start from a closed investigation
The Right Transactions

A report that carries what matters, and only that.

Transactions are selected by groups your bank defines, by account, customer, period, direction and amount. The estimated count is shown before the report is generated, so nothing irrelevant goes in by accident.

Where the transaction history comes from
The Codes Your FIU Expects

Every analyst picks from the same list.

Report types, reasons, predicate offences, attachments and report indicators are set as templates for your bank. The codes your FIU’s specification requires are chosen, not looked up and typed.

Templates configured for your bank
Reviewed Before It Leaves

Checked in the report, not in the XML.

The generated report opens section by section for review. Corrections can apply everywhere the same information appears, and the XML is produced only when the analyst is done.

How client and account data is prepared
Every Report on File

Which reports went out, who filed them, and when.

Every generated report is kept in one inventory with its creator, dates, status, type, client, accounts and the alert it came from. It can be searched by ID or text, opened, or downloaded again.

The client’s risk history, beside the report
Management and Audit Reports

The questions a supervisor asks, answered from one place.

Standard and custom reports, charts and exports cover alerts, investigations and processing. Session, list and import reports show whether screening data is current, and the audit report records every interaction.

How Regulatory Reporting Works

Try it yourself: five steps, from an FIU request to a filed, audited report, and the management reports built from the same data.

Every report comes from data DetectX® already holds: alerts, customers, accounts, transactions and the work done on them. Suspicious activity reports go to the FIU in its goAML structure, MROS for Switzerland and goAML elsewhere. Management gets reports and charts on the same data. Every step is yours to drive.

Regulatory Reporting FAQs

What compliance teams ask before choosing DetectX®.

Something we have not covered?Talk to our team

A suspicious activity report (SAR) is the notice a regulated firm files with its Financial Intelligence Unit when it suspects money laundering or terrorist financing. Where the report carries the payments or transactions behind the suspicion, it is often filed as a suspicious transaction report (STR). DetectX® prepares both, from the alert and the client, account and transaction data your bank already holds.

Reports are produced in the goAML XML structure, which many Financial Intelligence Units use to receive reports. The structure is documented in full for MROS, the FIU in Switzerland. Reports for other goAML FIUs follow the same structure, with templates for that FIU’s specification. The process of creating, managing, submitting and archiving each report is the same.

Both. A report can be opened from an alert or an investigation, with the alert’s details and the client carried over. It can also be created from scratch when the case began outside DetectX®.

The client, the products and accounts they used and their transaction history come from your data. Transactions are selected by groups your bank defines, and the estimated count is shown before the report is generated. Report types, reasons, predicate offences and indicators are chosen from your templates. The analyst writes the presentation of the facts and the reason for suspicion.

It is kept in the report inventory with its creator, dates, status, type, client, accounts and the alert it came from. It can be searched by ID or text, opened again, or downloaded as XML for submission. Review and editing happen in AlertViewer, because once downloaded as XML a report can no longer be edited.

Yes. The Reports section includes standard and custom reports, statistical charts and exports on alerts, investigations, users and processing. Session, active list and list import reports show whether screening data is current. The audit report records every interaction in AlertViewer.
