Cevap

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) corresponds to federal tax collection and cost-basis reporting; the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) corresponds to Bank Secrecy Act compliance and transaction report tracking (CTRs and SARs); the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) corresponds to economic and trade sanctions enforcement; and the Bureau of the Fiscal Service corresponds to public debt accounting and government securities issuance operations.
