What's the difference between multiple transactions and aggregated transactions?


Asked by Louis Sampson on Dec 13, 2021 FAQ



Select Page. We are often asked what the difference is between “multiple” and “aggregated” transactions when completing the Currency Transaction Report (CTR). The “multiple” transactions box is marked whenever there are multiple cash-in or cash-out transactions of any amount conducted in a single business day by, or for, a person.
In addition,
Information/Explanation of Aggregated Transactions. "Aggregated" is used when there are multiple transactions, all of which were below the reporting threshold. This was originally a required field used to indicate why information on the "person conducting the transaction" was not obtained and recorded.
In this manner, FinCEN's regulations implementing the Bank Secrecy Act ("BSA") require financial institutions to aggregate multiple currency transactions "if the financial institution has knowledge that [the multiple transactions] are by or on behalf of any person and result in either cash in or cash out totaling more than $10,000 during any one business day."
Indeed,
Max transaction lines included in aggregation – This field defines the number of transaction lines that will be included in a single aggregated transaction before a new one is created. Aggregated transactions are created based on different aggregation criteria such as customer, business date, or financial dimensions.
One may also ask,
Multiple transactions must be treated as a single transaction if the financial institution has knowledge that (1) they are by or on behalf of the same person and (2) they result in either currency received (cash-in) or currency disbursed (cash-out) by the financial institution totaling more than $10,000 during any one business day.
