Financial Intelligence Centre to be Established

The police, the Tax Agency, and the Economic Crime Authority are tasked by the government to establish a financial intelligence centre, to combat, for example, money laundering and fraud.

In order to tackle the profit-driven activities within criminality, the interaction between different actors must become more effective, says Minister of Justice Gunnar Strömmer (The Moderate Party).

The three authorities will share operational information with each other, but also work together with banks and financial institutions.

The centre should be established no later than April 1. When practically possible, the actors will work in the same location.

Sitting under the same roof has significance, says Strömmer.
