Money Laundering

Overview

Money laundering is the illegal process of disguising illicit funds as legitimate by moving them through financial systems. It typically involves three stages: placement, layering, and integration.Criminals use laundering to hide proceeds from crimes such as drug trafficking, corruption, or fraud.

Regulators worldwide enforce AML laws requiring financial institutions to detect, prevent, and report money laundering. Banks, fintechs, insurers, and payment providers deploy KYC, transaction monitoring, and sanctions screening tools to combat it.Global frameworks like FATF’s 40 Recommendations guide regulators in harmonizing standards. Preventing money laundering is not only a legal requirement but also essential to protect financial system integrity and public trust.
