FinCEN Whistleblower Program

As we mentioned in our blog (February 25, 2026), FinCEN’s Whistleblower Program webpage is a place where whistleblowers can report information about any potential violation of the Bank Secrecy Act including fraud, money laundering and sanctions violations. FinCEN notes that …Whistleblowers provide valuable information that may contribute significantly to the U.S. government’s efforts to safeguard the financial system from illicit use, combat money laundering and related crimes including terrorism and proliferation financing, and promote national security. As such, FinCEN is urging people to come forward and points out that …whistleblowers that wish to submit a tip anonymously may do so by submitting their information to the FinCEN whistleblower program, including through an attorney.

Emily discussed this during the Hot Topics portion of our most recent Monthly Connection. Here’s what she had to say:

We’d love to have you join the Monthly Connection! At each monthly meeting, you will receive:

• A summary of recent regulatory developments and other hot topics, a segment on compliance management and also revisit old compliance topics.
• A chance to pre-submit questions to be answered by our compliance experts.
• “Open-mic” time to ask questions and share your experiences.
• A recording for OnDemand viewing to watch at your convenience.
