Irs gets too Many reports of Large currency transactions Washington a the number of Large currency transactions being reported to the government has quadrupled in the Wake of the widely publicized conviction of the Bank of Boston in a Money laundering scheme the internal Revenue service said wednesday. For More than 10 years the government has required Banks and other financial institutions to file a report on any Deposit withdrawal or Transfer of More than si0,000. The number of such reports has climbed steadily from 3,418 in 197s. In january 19s5, the irs received 68,218 reports. In february the Bank of Boston was fined $500,000 for failing to file the required reports on billions of dollars Worth of transactions in which Small Bills from Swiss Banks were exchanged for $100 Bills and returned to Switzerland. Richard c. Wassenaar assistant irs commissioner for criminal investigations told reporters wednesday that since that time the number of reports on big Cash trans actions has grown to More than 270,000 per month. The irs expects about 3 million reports this year. This is one Case that we can show that resulted in significant and measurable increase in compliance after that Case was brought to the Public Wassenaar said. The Boston Case showed financial institutions that the govern ment is serious about enforcing this aspect of the Law he added. In fact Wassenaar said Loo Many reports Are being filed. A Check of the 271,630 reports filed in january indicated that about one of every five was not required because it concerned transactions from exempted businesses. The Law does not require z report when Tor example a Bank receives a Large Deposit from a regular customer who runs a business with a Large Cash turnover such is a fast food restaurant. Wassenaar said the reports have become an important tool in the government s Battle against drag traffickers. Who must convert Large numbers of Small Bills into bigger denominations to avoid the tax collector. We Are making it much More difficult for narcotics traffickers to make we of Domestic Banks for their laundering he Laid. Unable to use their own Bank accounts for such operations Wassenaar said Many traffickers now seek out individuals whose Bank accounts Are exempt from reporting and Channel their illegal profits through those accounts. The irs has gone after that by having some agents pose As holders of exempt accounts. Agents concluded a recent six month undercover opera Tion in Miami and los Angeles by arresting five drug traffickers and seizing is 1.6 million that had been deposited into exempt accounts. The irs has 267 businesses and individuals under Crim Inal investigation on suspicion of Money laundering violations including 51 financial institutions this year h has recommended prosecution of 13 Banks. Wassenaar said 174 cases were prosecuted last year and 300 Are Likely this year.
