Video on Suspicious Activity vs. Suspicious Transaction
According to AML UAE regulations, the reporting entities (Financial Institutions, DNFBPs and Virtual Asset Service Providers) must comply with reporting requirements with FIU on the goAML portal. Based on the red flags identified concerning any suspicious activity/ transaction, the entities must report the same to FIU on the goAML portal by filing a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR)/ Suspicious Transaction Report (STR).
SAR means to report any suspicious activity in case of attempted or unexecuted transactions before establishing a relationship with the customer. In contrast, STR means to report any suspicious transaction when the transaction has already been executed, or funds transfer has been initiated or concluded, even if the supply of goods/ services is pending.
