FIA launches red flag survey in lead-up to evaluation

New survey: the logo of the Bermuda Financial Intelligence Agency

Bermuda’s Financial Intelligence Agency is calling on all local regulated firms to take part in a newly launched survey designed to spot emerging red flags in money laundering and terrorist financing.

With an eye to Bermuda’s upcoming April 2027 Mutual Evaluation Review, the initiative aims to deepen the understanding of evolving threats and improve future risk assessments.

Only one submission per firm is permitted. The survey must be completed by a money laundering reporting officer or the designated compliance officer.

The purpose of the survey is to:

• Enhance future threat assessments

• Inform typology reports

• Update Bermuda’s National Risk Assessment

By gathering frontline insights, the FIA hopes to strengthen the island’s anti-financial crime framework and keep pace with new trends in illicit finance.

MLROs and compliance officers can find the survey via the FIA’s official website. If you need assistance, e-mail info@fia.bm.

The FIA stresses the importance of full co-operation from reporting entities to ensure accurate, comprehensive feedback ahead of the Mutual Evaluation.

This survey is part of a broader push to shore up Bermuda’s defences against financial crime by using real-time feedback from industry insiders.
