The annual report of 2018-19 of FIU mentions about a new project that would enhance the
efficiency of the system. The name of the project is Finnet 2.0.
The key objective of the FINnet 2.0 project is to drive a technology led transformation of the FINnet
ecosystem. This will encompass redevelopment and revamp of the FINnet application (FINGate, FINCore
and FINex). The project also includes redesigning of processes to improve compliance and strengthen the
strategic and tactical wings of FIU-IND
Road Ahead
The following table describes the transformation of FINnet at a high level as envisaged on the present
day.
Factor
2). Processing speed and improvement in accuracy and consistency of linkages and relationships
-Case inspector tool for LEAs to configure views and templates for case download
-Enable LEAs to select attributes for download
-Enable ad hoc dissemination through dynamic risk scoring of suspected entities and creation of watch
lists.
-The envisaged system shall monitor the compliance for all REs on a continuous basis and organise
trainings and workshops for continuous handholding of REs.
-Unified communication cell to address grievances and issues advisories as and when needed (Dedicated
call centre for all user groups)
8). Technology
Adoption of global best practices and procedures for operational transformation led by technology
LEAs
Benefits
The envisaged system shall allow the FIU-IND to conduct faster processing of reports and generation of
cases, thereby reducing the lead time between reporting and dissemination of cases.
FIU-IND is built on three pillars namely – Strategic, operational and tactical analysis. The operations
tasks can be taken care of by technology to a great extent. This would provide bandwidth to focus on
strategic and tactical initiatives if FIU-IND. New typologies can be devised, frequent review of red flags
can be done and new sectors can be identified to combat money laundering and terrorist financing in the
nation
