Title: Amendment to the Bank Secrecy Act Regulations--Definitions and Other Regulations Relating to Money Services Businesses  
Abstract: The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) is proposing to revise the regulations implementing the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) regarding money services businesses (MSBs) to clarify which entities are covered by the definitions. Specifically, FinCEN is reviewing the MSB regulatory framework with a focus on providing efficient and effective regulation for the industry, as well as improving the ability of regulators, law enforcement, and FinCEN to safeguard the U.S. financial system from the abuses of terrorist financing, money laundering, and other financial crime.
