For INTRAC to determine whether a transaction is considered suspicious, at least four indicators must be present. First, the transaction does not match the profile, characteristics, or transaction pattern of the account holder.

Second, account holders tend to avoid the obligation to report transactions. Third, the transaction is suspected of using criminal funds. Fourth, financial transactions are requested by INTRAC to be reported because they involve assets resulting from criminal acts.
