Combating Money Laundering

Combating Money Laundering

BACKGROUND

Money laundering and the financing of terrorism are financial crimes that divert resources away from economically and socially productive uses, thus negatively impacting the global and local financial sector. Regulators have responded to money laundering and financing of terrorism by adopting relevant laws, guidelines, directives and recommendations at both local and international levels. These require financial sector players to develop and effectively implement programmes that mitigate the adverse effects of criminal economic activity and promote integrity and stability in financial markets.
