Money laundering: more reports

The number of reports received by the Money Laundering Reporting Office Switzerland (MROS) each year is constantly increasing. They are almost exclusively received electronically.

In one year, the Money Laundering Reporting Office Switzerland (MROS) has recorded a 55.5% increase in the number of suspicious activity reports (SARs) related to money laundering. 98% of these reports were made electronically via goAML. MROS analyses the SARs and, where appropriate, refers cases to the prosecuting authorities.

The MROS annual report presents a summary of MROS’s activities and provides an in-depth look at money laundering, supported by statistics and additional information.
