He stated this at a festive event dedicated to the 25th anniversary of the Federal Financial Monitoring Service. "There is a need to simultaneously simplify procedures for bona fide market participants. And at the same time tighten the supervision of suspicious transactions," Putin said. The head of state called for improving the work of Rosfinmonitoring and continuing the technological modernization of the department.
