Anti-money Laundering:-
The process of disguising the proceeds of crime in an effort to conceal their illicit origins and legitimize their future use. Its main objective is to conceal true ownership and origin of the proceeds, a desire to maintain control, a need to change the form of the proceeds.Techniques used can be simple, diverse, complex, but secret.
The Offshore Financial Centres - Conceiling the beneficial ownerFrank Erkens
Faced with the threat that the public may lose its confidence in the financial world, the international community has decided to uncover the numerous disguises used by criminals. This two-part series focuses on a number of important disguises, and the initiatives taken to resolve the problem of the concealment of beneficial owners. In the first part, we will look at the Offshore Financial Centres. This two-part series centres around the US legislative proposal HR3886. The aim of this legislative proposal is to facilitate the identification of the beneficial owner. Of course, the question remains whether this aim will be achieved or whether, as it appears now, the problem will simply relocate.

TERRORISTS NOT USING BITCOIN? POLITICIANS WANT TO REGULATE IT ANYWAYSteven Rhyner
The European Union's law enforcement agency, Europol, has stated, in its recently published report, that the use of Bitcoin in financing terrorist activities has not been confirmed.
In recent years, the rise of cryptocurrencies has captured the attention of individuals, businesses, and governments worldwide. As this digital revolution continues to reshape the financial landscape, it becomes increasingly important to understand the role and impact of cryptocurrency legislation.
Moving "value" through commodities is often more important than moving money. Law enforcement focuses on combating money laundering, generating data in such volumes that is not usable. Fighting terrorist financing depends on good intelligence, not mere report generation.
In this whitepaper we assess the gambling and gaming industry’s KYC and AML compliance challenges. Gambling identity verification processes can be complex, time consuming, and impact the customer experience. With a growing competitive landscape, the chances a customer may go elsewhere are high. This is where a frictionless, seamless, and quick onboarding service can add value – reduce abandonment, increase conversion rates, and accelerate the time-to-revenue.
