Recital 78

(78) It is important that FIUs cooperate and exchange information effectively with one another. In that regard, AMLA should provide the necessary assistance, not only by means of coordinating joint analyses of cross-border suspicious transaction reports, but also by developing draft implementing and regulatory technical standards concerning the format to be used for the exchange of information between FIUs, the template for the submission of suspicious transaction reports and the relevance and selection criteria to be taken into account when determining whether a suspicious transaction report concerns another Member State as well as guidelines on the nature, features and objectives of operational and of strategic analysis and on the procedures to be put in place when forwarding and receiving a suspicious transaction report which concerns another Member State and the follow-up to be given. AMLA should also set up a peer review process in order to strengthen consistency and effectiveness of FIUs’ activities and to facilitate the exchange of best practices between FIUs.
