Evolving AML/CFT Expectations and Enforcement Priorities as FinCEN Releases FY 2025 Year in Review

On April 16, 2026, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”) released its Year in Review for Fiscal Year 2025 (the “FY 2025 Report”). The report provides a concise overview of recent regulatory and enforcement developments in the financial crimes space and offers insight into FinCEN’s evolving priorities.

FinCEN highlights several key accomplishments over the past year, including reporting $10 billion in savings attributed to deregulatory efforts, enhancing the management and sharing of Bank Secrecy Act (“BSA”) data with law enforcement, and expanding engagement with private-sector stakeholders on anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism (“AML/CFT”) issues.
