This session provides attendees with guidance and best practices on developing effective Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) narratives, focusing on formatting, how to organize your report so the reader understands the activity you identified, FinCENs Key terms, and what to include (and avoid!) in your report. We’ll also discuss developing and maintaining valuable partnerships with law enforcement.
