referred to as the Bank Secrecy Act to include certain gaming 
establishments operated by or on behalf of Indian tribes within the 
definition of financial institution subject to those regulations. The 
amendments would extend the reporting and recordkeeping requirements 
and anti-money laundering safeguards of the Bank Secrecy Act to such 
gaming establishments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Introduction

    This document proposes (i) to amend the definition of ``casino'' in 
31 CFR 103.11(i)(7)(i), (ii) to amend or add other definitions in 31 
CFR 103.11, and (iii) to make a conforming change to the specification 
in 31 CFR 103.36(b)(7) of certain records required to be maintained by 
casinos. The proposed changes reflect the terms of section 409 of the 
Money Laundering Suppression Act of 1994 (the ``Money Laundering 
Suppression Act''), Title IV of the Riegle Community Development and 
Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994, Pub. L. 103-325.

Background

    The statute popularly known as the ``Bank Secrecy Act,'' Pub. L. 
91-508, as amended, codified at 12 U.S.C. 1829b, 12 U.S.C. 1951-1959, 
and 31 U.S.C. 5311-5330, authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury, 
inter alia, to issue regulations requiring financial institutions to 
(i) keep records and file reports that are determined to have a high 
degree of usefulness in criminal, tax, and regulatory matters, (ii) 
implement counter-money laundering programs and compliance procedures, 
and (iii) report potentially suspicious transactions to the federal 
government. Regulations implementing Title II of the Bank Secrecy Act 
(codified at 31 U.S.C. 5311-5330), appear at 31 CFR Part 103. The 
authority of the Secretary to administer the Bank Secrecy Act has been 
delegated to the Director of FinCEN.
    The range of financial institutions to which the Bank Secrecy Act 
applies includes not only banks and other depository institutions, but 
also securities brokers and dealers, money transmitters, and the other 
non-bank businesses that offer customers one or more financial 
services. Gambling casinos were made subject to the Bank Secrecy Act as 
of May 7, 1985, by regulation issued early that year, see 50 FR 5065 
(February 6, 1985). Treasury has issued three sets of rules relating to 
the application of the Bank Secrecy Act to casino gaming 
establishments. See 50 FR 5064-5069 (February 6, 1985); 54 FR 1165-1167 
(January 12, 1989); and 59 FR 61660-61662 (December 1, 1994) (modifying 
and putting into final effect the rule originally published at 58 FR 
13538-13550 (March 12, 1993)).
    Legalized casino gaming in the United States has grown greatly 
since 1985. An important component of that growth has been the opening 
of casinos and other gaming establishments on Indian lands, primarily 
under the procedures established by the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act 
(Pub. L. 100-497, codified at 18 U.S.C. 1166-1168, and 25 U.S.C. 2701-
2721). State gaming regulators and staff members of the National Indian 
Gaming Commission (the ``NIGC''), established pursuant to the Indian 
Gaming Regulatory Act, have indicated that there were approximately 120 
tribal casinos, of various sizes and types, operating during 1994 in a 
total of 16 states. Industry statistics for 1993 (the last year for 
which statistics are readily available) indicate that wagering at 
tribal casinos exceeded $27 billion in that year, a steep rate of 
increase from prior years' results.
    Section 409 of the Money Laundering Suppression Act codified the 
application of the Bank Secrecy Act to gaming activities by adding 
casinos and other gaming establishments to the list of financial 
institutions specified in the Bank Secrecy Act itself.1 The 
statutory specification reads:

    \1\ The 1985 action initially making casinos subject to the Bank 
Secrecy Act had been based on Treasury's statutory authority to 
designate as financial institutions (i) businesses that engage in 
activities ``similar to'' the activities of the businesses listed in 
the Bank Secrecy Act, as well as (ii) other businesses ``whose cash 
transactions have a high degree of usefulness in criminal, tax, or 
regulatory matters.'' See 31 U.S.C. 5312(a)(2)(Y) and (Z) (as 
renumbered by the Money Laundering Suppression Act).

    (2) financial institution means--
    (X) a casino, gambling casino, or gaming establishment with an 
annual gaming revenue of more than $1,000,000 which--
    (i) is licensed as a casino, gambling casino, or gaming 
establishment under the laws of 

[[Page 39666]]
any State or any political subdivision of any State; or
    (ii) is an Indian gaming operation conducted under or pursuant 
to the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act other than an operation which is 
limited to class I gaming (as defined in section 4(6) of such Act) * 
* *.

31 U.S.C. 5312(a)(2)(X). As discussed more fully below, this notice is 
part of the broader process of rethinking the application of the Bank 
Secrecy Act to casinos that began with the issuance of burden-reducing 
amendments to the Bank Secrecy Act regulations governing casinos in 
December 1994.
    See 59 FR 61660-61662 (December 1, 1994).
Explanation of Provisions

    A. Overview. The proposed regulations would amend the definition of 
``casino'' to include explicitly casinos operated on Indian lands; make 
related changes to the regulatory definitions of ``person'' and 
``United States'' in 31 CFR 103.11(n) and 103.11(s), respectively; and 
add definitions of the terms ``Indian Gaming Regulatory Act'', 
``State'', and ``Territories and Insular Possessions'', as proposed in 
31 CFR 103.11 (v), (w), and (x), respectively. A related amendment is 
proposed to the record retention requirements found in 31 CFR 
103.36(b)(7), to reflect the regulatory system contemplated by the 
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act.
    B. Definition of Casino. The definition of casino is proposed to be 
amended to include explicitly casinos operated on Indian lands. Under 
the proposed amendment, the term casino would include, inter alia, any 
casino or gambling casino duly licensed or authorized to do business 
under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act or other federal, state, or 
tribal law or arrangement affecting Indian lands. The term would thus 
include casinos that are doing business on Indian lands on a basis 
other than that specified in the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. For 
example, a casino that operates on Indian lands under a view that 
compliance with the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act is unnecessary or 
inconsistent with inherent tribal rights would not for that reason be 
exempted from the terms of the Bank Secrecy Act, to the extent that 
those terms would otherwise apply to the casino's operations.2

    \2\ The authority for the application of the Bank Secrecy Act to 
casinos that are neither licensed by state or local authorities nor 
operated on Indian Lands pursuant to the Indian Gaming Regulatory 
Act is found in 31 U.S.C. 5312(a)(2)(Y) and (Z), cited above, which 
as noted were the basis for application of the Bank Secrecy Act to 
casinos prior to the enactment of the Money Laundering Suppression 
Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The general need for and appropriateness of treatment of casinos as 
financial institutions for purposes of the Bank Secrecy Act have been 
accepted, as indicated above, since the mid-1980s. Treasury made clear 
in its first formal statements on this subject the need to prevent 
casinos, which both deal in cash and cash-equivalent chips and can 
offer a variety of other financial services to customers, from being 
used to avoid the effect of the Bank Secrecy Act.3 There is no 
reason to expect that the potential risk of such activity in casinos on 
Indian lands, if those casinos were not subject to the Bank Secrecy 
Act, is any less (or any greater) than for state-licensed casinos. 
Prior to the enactment of the Money Laundering Suppression Act, the 
issue whether the Bank Secrecy Act could be applied to gaming 
operations on Indian lands was unsettled in light of the language of 
section 20(d) of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act, 25 U.S.C. 2719(d), 
and the disinclination to apply general federal legislation to the 
affairs of Indian tribes without clear Congressional authorization. 
Section 409 of the Money Laundering Suppression Act grants direct 
authority to the Secretary of the Treasury to apply the Bank Secrecy 
Act to most tribal gaming operations and is backed by a strong 
expression of Congressional intent, in the legislative documents 
accompanying the statute, ``* * * to eliminate confusion about which 
currency reporting system applies to Indian casinos.'' See H.R. Rep. 
No. 652, 103d Cong., 2d Sess. 193 (1994). (The other currency reporting 
system is that created, for trades or businesses not subject to the 
Bank Secrecy Act, by section 6050I of the Internal Revenue Code of 
1986.)

    \3\ The preamble to the final rule bringing casinos within the 
Bank Secrecy Act stated that
    [i]n recent years Treasury has found that an increasing number 
of persons are using gambling casinos for money laundering and tax 
evasion purposes. In a number of instances, narcotics traffickers 
have used gambling casinos as substitutes for other financial 
institutions in order to avoid the reporting and recordkeeping 
requirements of the Bank Secrecy Act.
    Inclusion of casinos in the definition of financial 
institution[s] in 31 CFR Part 103 was among the specific 
recommendations in the October 1984 report of the President's 
Commission on Organized Crime, `The Cash Connection: Organized 
Crime, Financial Institutions, and Money Laundering'. The problem 
was also the subject of hearings in 1984 before the House Judiciary 
Subcommittee on Crime entitled `The Use of Casinos to Launder the 
Proceeds of Drug Trafficking and Organized Crime'.
    In order to prevent the use of casinos in this fashion, Treasury 
is amending the regulations in 31 CFR Part 103 to require gambling 
casinos to file the same types of reports [and maintain the same 
types of records] that it requires from financial institutions 
currently covered by the Bank Secrecy Act.
    50 FR 5065, 5066, (February 6, 1985); see also 49 FR 32861, 
32862 (August 17, 1984) (corresponding language in notice of 
proposed rulemaking).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The retention in the proposed regulation of the term ``casino'', 
rather than substitution in 31 CFR 103.11(i)(7)(i) of the broader 
authorizing language of 31 U.S.C. 5312(a)(2)(X), is intentional. The 
Department of the Treasury has generally sought to apply the Bank 
Secrecy Act to gaming establishments that provide their customers with 
a financial product--gaming--and as a corollary offer a broad array of 
financial services, such as customer deposit or credit accounts, 
facilities for transmitting and receiving funds transfers directly from 
other institutions, and check cashing and currency exchange services, 
that are similar to those offered by depository institutions and other 
financial firms.
    By way of contrast, the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act defines 
classes of gaming establishments with reference to specific games that 
may be offered by those establishments. States or the NIGC may 
authorize and regulate under that Act tribal gaming activities, such as 
bingo, lotteries, and pari-mutuel betting, that are not generally 
offered in casino settings. These types of gaming may create different 
problems for law enforcement, tax compliance, and counter-money 
laundering programs than do full-scale casino operations. Although the 
Money Laundering Suppression Act grants the Department of the Treasury 
authority to extend the Bank Secrecy Act to the full range of gaming 
establishments in the United States, FinCEN wishes to concentrate at 
this time on resolving the issues raised by extending the existing Bank 
Secrecy Act structure to true casino-like establishments operating on 
Indian lands.
    The other changes in the definition of casino are designed simply 
to list explicitly the three classes of government authorities that can 
authorize or license casinos subject to the Bank Secrecy Act. The 
changes are intended neither to expand nor contract the coverage of the 
Bank Secrecy Act to casinos operating under State authority or under 
the authority of various United States territories or possessions.
    C. Treatment of Casinos Under the Bank Secrecy Act. Thus, under the 
proposed regulations, casinos operating on Indian lands would become 
subject not simply to the Bank Secrecy Act's currency transaction 
reporting rules but to the full set of provisions (described by the 
Congress as ``a comprehensive currency reporting and detailed 
recordkeeping system with numerous 

[[Page 39667]]
anti-money laundering safeguards'') to which other casinos in the 
United States are subject. See H.R. Rep. No. 652, supra. 
    The Bank Secrecy Act generally imposes several sets of requirements 
on casinos. First, each casino is required to file with the Department 
of the Treasury a report of each receipt or disbursement of more than 
$10,000 in currency in its gaming operations; aggregation of multiple 
transactions is required in a number of situations. See 31 CFR 
103.22(a)(2). In addition, later this year, Treasury will issue 
regulations to require financial institutions, including casinos, to 
file reports of suspicious transactions. See 31 U.S.C. 5318(g)(1).
    Each casino is also required by the Bank Secrecy Act to maintain 
certain records relating to the casino's operation, including records 
identifying account holders (see 31 CFR 103.36(a)), or showing 
transactions for or through each customer's account (see, generally, 31 
CFR 103.36(b)), and transactions involving persons, accounts or places 
outside the United States, (see 31 CFR 103.36(b)(5)); records which are 
prepared or used by a casino to monitor a customer's gaming activity or 
records of purchases of more than $3,000 worth of checks or other 
monetary instruments are also among the types of records that must be 
maintained (see 31 CFR 103.36(b)(8) and (b)(9)). Finally, casinos must 
institute training and internal control programs to assure and monitor 
compliance with the Bank Secrecy Act (see 31 CFR 103.36(b)(10) and 
103.54(a)).
    Gaming establishments within the scope of the proposed rule will 
remain subject to the filing requirements of section 6050I of the 
Internal Revenue Code, with respect to their gaming and financial 
services operations, until this proposed rule becomes effective. See 
section 6050I of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. 6050I(a) and (c); 
Treas. Reg. 1.6050I-1(d)(2). Gaming establishments, whether non-tribal 
or tribal, that are not included within the definition of casino in the 
Bank Secrecy Act remain fully subject to the currency reporting rules 
of section 6050I of the Internal Revenue Code; section 6050I of the 
Code will also continue to apply to non-gaming and non-financial 
services operations, for example hotel accommodations, at casinos that 
are subject to the Bank Secrecy Act.
    D. Request for Comments on Specific Subjects. FinCEN recognizes 
that the circumstances of tribal gaming are not uniform throughout the 
United States, and it is keenly aware of the need to proceed 
thoughtfully in adopting the rules of the Bank Secrecy Act to the 
realities of the operation of casinos on Indian lands. FinCEN 
specifically seeks comment on the following questions:
    1. Are there particular parts of the Bank Secrecy Act regulations 
applicable to casinos generally that do not accurately reflect the way 
tribal casinos operate?
    2. What types of financial services, other than gaming, are offered 
by tribal casinos or by other financial businesses operating at such 
casinos?
    3. How can compliance with the Bank Secrecy Act by tribal casinos 
best be examined and enforced?
    4. How should compliance by tribal casinos with the Bank Secrecy 
Act be integrated with the regulatory regimes created by the Indian 
Gaming Regulatory Act and the tribal-state compacts required by that 
statute for authorization of Class III gaming?
    In seeking guidance on these and other issues raised by this notice 
of proposed rulemaking, FinCEN is interested in hearing from all 
parties potentially affected by the proposed rules, including Indian 
tribes on whose lands gaming is conducted, tribal or non-tribal 
enterprises that manage casinos on such lands, and officials of state 
and local governments within whose boundaries such lands are located. 
FinCEN will consider holding a public hearing on the proposed rule if 
comments suggest that a public hearing would be productive.
    Equalization of the treatment of state-licensed and tribal casinos 
is necessary as a prelude to the consideration of broader issues 
affecting the application of the Bank Secrecy Act to the gaming 
industry. Those issues include whether clarifications should be made in 
the definition of casino as new types of gaming develop (or whether the 
term ``casino'' is sufficiently elastic to encompass such developments, 
\4\) whether special rules should be applicable to small casinos, and 
how best to implement the provisions added to the Bank Secrecy Act 
generally with respect to gaming establishments by the Annunzio-Wylie 
Anti-Money Laundering Act of 1992, Title XV of the Housing and 
Community Development Act of 1992, Pub. L. 102-550, and the Money 
Laundering Suppression Act.

    \4\ For example, an establishment that claimed to be a gambling 
``club'' rather than a casino because it simply offered customers an 
opportunity to gamble with one another, but that in practice funded 
certain customers so that other customers were in effect gambling 
against ``house'' money, and that offered its customers financial 
services of various kinds, is arguably a casino under present law. 
Thus, for example, if such a ``club'' failed to file currency 
transactions reports or allowed a customer to deposit funds in a 
player bank account in the name of the customer without requiring 
the customer to provide identifying information, the club would 
arguably be operating in violation of the Bank Secrecy Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    E. Other Changes in ``Meaning of Terms''. Changes are also proposed 
to be made to the definitions of ``person'' and ``United States'' in 31 
CFR 103.11(n) and (s), and definitions of the terms ``Indian Gaming 
Regulatory Act'', ``State'', and ``Territories and Insular 
Possessions'' are proposed to be added to Sec. 103.11 as new paragraphs 
(v), (w), and (x), respectively. As explained immediately above, these 
definitions are proposed to permit efficient application of 31 CFR Part 
103 to tribal casinos. The proposed definitions of terms ``State'' and 
``Territories and Insular Possessions'' will be repeated in the rules 
published to implement the provisions of section 402 of the Money 
Laundering Suppression Act relating to the mandatory exemption of 
certain transactions with depository institutions from the currency 
transaction reporting requirements of 31 U.S.C. 5313 and 31 CFR 
103.22.\5\

    \5\ The numbering scheme used in this notice of proposed 
rulemaking reflects the July 1, 1994 edition of the Code of Federal 
Regulations; the definitions contained in 31 CFR 103.11 will 
automatically be renumbered as of January 1, 1996, when the rules 
relating to funds transfers and transmittals of funds by financial 
institutions take effect. FinCEN intends to issue in the near future 
a notice of proposed rulemaking reordering all of the provisions of 
31 CFR 103.11 as well as proposing changes in certain of those 
provisions; the terms dealt with in this notice will appear in that 
notice of proposed rulemaking without further changes relating to 
tribal casinos.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    F. Additions to Record Maintenance Requirements. The requirement of 
31 CFR 103.36(b)(7) that casinos retain all records, documents or 
manuals required to be maintained under state and local laws or 
regulations is proposed to be amended to recognize that tribal casinos 
are required to retain records in many cases either by tribal governing 
authorities or under the terms of tribal-state compacts authorizing 
Class III gaming on Indian lands under the Indian Gaming Regulatory 
Act. The proposed change simply conforms the record retention 
requirements to reflect the fact that a casino on tribal lands will 
retain certain documents because tribal rules or tribal-state compacts, 
rather than state regulation, require their retention.

Proposed Effective Date

    The amendments to 31 CFR Part 103 proposed in this notice of 
proposed rulemaking will become effective 90 days following publication 
in the Federal Register of the final rule to which this notice relates. 


[[Page 39668]]


Special Analyses

    It has been determined that this notice of proposed rulemaking (i) 
is not subject to the ``budgetary impact statement'' requirement of 
section 202 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4) 
and (ii) is not a significant regulatory action as defined in Executive 
Order 12866. It is not anticipated that this proposed rule, if adopted 
as a final rule, will have an annual effect on the economy of $100 
million or more. Nor will it, if so adopted, affect adversely in a 
material way the economy, a sector of the economy, productivity, 
competition, jobs, the environment, public health or safety, or state, 
local or tribal governments or communities. The proposed rule is 
neither inconsistent with, nor does it interfere with, actions taken or 
planned by other agencies. Finally, it raises no novel legal or policy 
issues.
    Because this rule affects Indian gaming establishments with gross 
annual gaming revenues in excess of $1 million, it is hereby certified 
that this proposed rule is not likely to have a significant economic 
impact on a substantial number of small entities.
Drafting Information

    Several individuals in FinCEN's Office of Legal Counsel and its 
Office of Regulatory Policy and Enforcement participated in the
