What is AML Compliance?
Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance encompasses the regulations, policies, and procedures that financial institutions and regulated businesses must follow to prevent, detect, and report money laundering activities. According to the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), global money laundering transactions account for 2-5% of global GDP annually, approximately $800 billion to $2 trillion.
