Overview
What is AML Compliance?
AML stands for Anti-Money Laundering. It's all about making sure that businesses aren't being used as a tool for criminals to clean their dirty money. AML compliance involves a set of rules and procedures designed to prevent, detect, and report any suspicious activity that might be linked to money laundering or terrorist financing. This includes things like verifying the identity of your customers (also known as KYC), keeping a close eye on transactions for anything unusual, and reporting any suspicious activity to the authorities.
