JFIU quarterly SAR statistics report for Q3 #2025

14/11/2025

The JFIU HAS  published its quarterly SAR statistics report for Q3 #2025. The report primarily looks at reporting from Jersey's Regulated Sectors for the period from July to September this year.

Also, it shows trend comparisons for Q1 and Q2 2025, as well as comparisons against last year.

⭐The top 9 key findings are:⭐

  1. 👉 531 SARs were received in Q3 2025
    • A 29% increase compared to the same quarter in 2024.
  2. 👉 Sectors top 3
    • Banking continued to be the largest reporting sector, accounting for 61.2% of all SARs submitted in Q3,
    • TCSPs (20.1%) and
    • Funds sector (5.3%).
  3. 👉 The number of SARs received in Q3 is higher than the number received in Q1 and Q2 of 2025. This is partially driven by an increase in reporting from the VASP sector.
  4. 👉 The VASP sector in Jersey expanded in Q3 2025, which has led to an increase in reporting.
  5. 👉 Fraud was the most common Predicate Criminality indicated on SARs (40.9% of SARs).
  6. 👉 Consents  The FIU
    • Provided consent on 75.6% of occasions,
    • Withheld it on 19.8% of occasions - In many cases, consent was withheld because insufficient information wasn't available for the FIU to make a decision.
    • The matter was not considered a consent matter on 2.5% of occasions.
  7. 👉 Fraud and False Accounting were the most commonly selected grounds for disclosure for other-undetermined SARs in Q3 2025.
  8. 👉 The top country for predicate criminality identified was the UK.
  9. 👉 The quality of SAR reporting
    • Increased to 95.1% of reports (505), which were deemed to be of a good standard of disclosure.
    • With only one report failing to meet the required standard.

This Q3 report:

  • Includes another of its dedicated FIU typologies aimed at growing awareness in its regulated sectors of the different types of illicit finance.
  • Looks at a fictional scenario for the banking sector involving bribery and corruption linked to Environmental Crime, in particular deforestation.
