What this bill would do
The Financial Reporting Threshold Modernization Act aims to update various financial reporting thresholds. It directs the Secretary of the Treasury to increase several dollar amounts used for currency transaction reports and nonfinancial trade or business reports. The bill also instructs federal agencies to update thresholds for suspicious activity reports. Additionally, it mandates updates for Money Services Business definition thresholds. These updates are intended to occur within 180 days of the Act's enactment. Furthermore, the bill establishes a system for periodic updates based on the Consumer Price Index.
