Senate Investigators Interview A Former Trump Business Associate Who Tried To Get Trump A Deal In
Moscow
Sater, spotted entering the committee’s secure office spaces Wednesday morning, declined to comment to reporters.
The committee recently asked the Treasury Department for financial information on Sater and his real estate firm, Bayrock Group LLC, which did deals with the Trump Organization in the early 2000s. In a letter to Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network dated Dec. 7, the committee asked for any potential suspicious activity reports and other bank documents on Sater, Bayrock, and other people and businesses. Banks must report to the Treasury transactions that have the characteristics of money laundering or other financial wrongdoing, but the reports themselves are not evidence of a crime — many of the transactions are legal.
It’s unclear whether FinCEN has turned over any documents related to Sater, but it has identified 23 suspicious activity reports associated with his financial transactions, sources say.
