More than 5,000 users across 39 different partner agencies accessed our data holdings in 2017–18. Our partners also have direct access to our data holdings and can search our information directly to support their national security and law enforcement work. We actively share intelligence reports with our government partners to help in their work to detect and disrupt criminal activity. Our financial intelligence makes a significant contribution to the national intelligence picture and supports investigations by our government partners at the federal and state levels. By sharing financial intelligence, we play a vital role in helping law enforcement and security agencies to detect and disrupt criminal activity in Australia and around the world. Intelligence partnerships, both public and private, are fundamental for AUSTRAC. We then share this intelligence with our partners to support law enforcement and national security operations. We closely analyse the information in these reports using sophisticated modelling and predictive analysis tools in combination with other data sources to identify potential criminal activity or risks to national security. In this capacity, we oversee the compliance of more than 17,000 reporting entities with their AML/CTF obligations, including reporting financial transactions and suspicious activity to AUSTRAC. We also act as Australia’s AML/CTF regulator. How we collect and use financial intelligence We also participate in a number of national and state task forces, providing specialist financial intelligence to national security and transnational serious and organised crime efforts. We share our findings with a wide range of domestic and international partner agencies in law enforcement and security. Our financial intelligence analysts use that information to identify financial transactions linked to crimes, including money laundering, terrorism financing, organised crime, child exploitation and tax evasion.
