This week, the UK Treasury released a draft of amendments to current money laundering regulations aimed at addressing regulatory gaps and evolving risks, including stricter requirements for cryptocurrency businesses.
According to the draft document, "these updates aim to create a more risk-based and proportionate system that is both effective in fighting financial crime and viable for the industry."
"The government also committed to improve industry guidance on AML/CFT compliance on a range of issues and to issue separate guidance on the use of digital identity verification for AML/CFT purposes."
AML and CTF are short for anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing in the financial industry.
