Financial Crimes Information Network (FinCEN)

The US Treasury Financial Crimes Information Network allows companies that handle cash and money changing transactions to sign up as a provider of information regarding suspicious activities.

The list of opt in companies is available by State at http://www.fincen.gov/msbstateselector.html.

Banks and other obvious finance companies are all members of the network automatically. The list above is just the entities that feel they must provide data on suspicious transactions.

It might be interesting to see who is on the list from your State. Do you, in the course of your business, change money, send money or accept large cash transactions? If so, you may want to contact the FinCEN at http://www.fincen.gov .
