VisFAN: Dicovery, Analysis, and Visualization of Finantial Activity Networks

VisFAN is a software system for the dicovery and visual analysis of financial activity networks. It supports the analyst with effective tools to discover financial crimes, such as money laundering and frauds. VisFAN allows either the analysis of data within the same financial institution (bank, money service businesses, insurance agency, etc.) or the analysis of suspicious transaction data collected from different financial subjects. It offers novel algorithms and interaction functionalities for the visual exploration of networked data, and is equipped with tools for social network analysis and for the automatic generation of reports. A commercial version of this software is currently in use at the Financial Intelligence Agency (AIF) of the San Marino Republic.
