Development of a Business Process Model for Automated Monitoring of Financial Operations by the Bank to Counter Legalization of Criminal Income

Abstract

The general architecture of the automated information system of financial monitoring consisting of 4 levels is developed in the article: internal financial monitoring of economic agents (level 1), bank financial monitoring (Client-bank - level 2), state financial monitoring ( level 3), law enforcement and intelligence organs (level 4). The model was developed using the Bizagi Studio software product and modern BPMN 2.0 notation for automated monitoring of the business process of financial transactions through the "Client-Bank" system, which reveals the purpose and subject of the study. Relevant criteria for verifying the content of financial transactions are 10 factors unified for different economic agents and 13 verification criteria implemented directly at the second level of verification in the system "Client-Bank." The paper confirms that to implement an effective and efficient system of response to any alarming or suspicious actions related to financial transactions, it is necessary to use automated financial monitoring systems, conducting internal audits of economic agents' financial transactions to achieve quality monitoring in the "Client-Bank" system. This allows making the identification of potential threats with a high degree of probability. If there is a noncompliance with any of the verification criteria, the automated system of verification of financial transactions generates messages to the services of state financial monitoring, law enforcement, and intelligence agencies. The results of the developed business process models of the automatic system for internal monitoring of economic agents and the automatic business process monitoring of financial transactions by the bank can be implemented in the work of primary financial monitoring entities, directly, into the banks, credit unions, pawnshops, insurance companies, other financial institutions, and payment institutions and organizations.
