Challenges faced by the industry
Money Laundering is a fundamental threat to the security and prosperity of economies and communities, with the UN estimating that up to $2 trillion is money laundered globally every year. Financial institutions are on the front line in preventing criminal funds flowing through the international financial system, but a mere 1% is being detected and dealt with by law enforcement agencies.
Tackling financial crime and money laundering is undoubtedly one of the most important and challenging priorities of regulators. Stringent rules and regulations are in place across the world requiring firms to have policies, procedures, and controls in place to combat the threat. However financial institutions are rarely out of the headlines for anti-money laundering (AML) control failures with multi-billion dollar fines being levied against the industry annually, along with intrusive regulatory scrutiny and damage to reputations.
Senior management and boards are well aware of the risk of financial crime to both their business and their own individual accountability. The role of the Compliance and AML Officers globally in supervising compliance with the firm’s AML obligations is becoming ever more complex as the scale of the threat increases with criminals relentlessly exploiting every vulnerability or technological advancement.
Financial firms face an insurmountable challenge in tackling the threat of AML and are turning to technology and RegTech to help them. With the risks and requirements varying by jurisdiction and customer type, firms need to keep pace with complex and continuously updated regulatory obligations from global regulatory bodies, while making sure employees understand and comply with them.
