CTIF-CFI workshop: Mastering the 'goAML' application for reporting suspicious transactions
Since February 1, 2023, CTIF-CFI has joined a community of more than 60 countries working with the goAML application. The goAML portal is a stable tool developed by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and specifically intended for Financial Intelligence Units (FIUs).
The portal offers many FIU-specific benefits, but is also a modern and user-friendly platform that provides advancement for the reporters:
- A more user-friendly web portal for communicating your suspicions of money laundering and terrorist financing via a web form, loading a pre-filled XML and a web service.
- An internal messaging system (internal mailbox or "message board") that allows more efficient and secure communication between all parties involved (CTIF-CFI and subject entities, CTIF-CFI and judicial authorities, etc.).
- The ability to easily change the contact details of your institution and contacts yourself.
Once the goAML application will be operational (projected date 30 September 2024), only reports of suspicious transactions submitted via the application will be accepted by CTIF-CFI.
The objectives of this training under the guidance of CTIF-CFI are:
- Familiarize yourself with goAML: Participants will learn to understand the basics of the goAML application, including how to submit reports and how to use the internal messaging system.
- Efficient reporting submissions: The training focuses on optimizing the reporting process so that users can report suspicious transactions quickly and accurately.
- Contact Information Management: Participants will learn how to update their contact information in goAML.
