The Financial Crimes Commission, through coordination and cooperation with relevant public and private bodies, is at the forefront of the combat against financial crimes. It is mandated to detect, investigate and prosecute a spectrum of financial crimes. It is also the central agency for asset recovery and declaration of asset matters.

“Financial Crime” refers to offences committed under Part III of the FCC Act, which include corruption, money laundering, fraud, and the financing of drug dealing as well as any crime committed under the law of any financial or competent authority which, in view of its financial implications, complexity, scope, nature or in the public interest, the Commission decides, after consultation with that authority, that it shall investigate into the matter.

For more information, refer to the FCC Act.
