Improving Anti-Money Laundering ComplianceIntroduction

Improving Anti-Money Laundering Compliance: Introduction [There has been a lot of discussion about the level of effectiveness of anti-money laundering (AML) within the United Kingdom (UK) and even globally. Some have attributed the problem with AML to weak regulatory and compliance framework, others lay the blame on the regulated sector for not doing enough to prevent money laundering, while some have attributed the problem to the cost of compliance imposed by the regulators. This book looks at the problem of AML from the perspective of one of the most important stakeholders, the money laundering reporting officers (MLROs), because their voice is often not heard in the debate despite the critical role they play in AML. Consequently, the chapter introduces the problem with AML from the perspective of MLROs. The aims and objectives of the book, the justification for the writing of the book and a brief discussion on the philosophy and methodology adopted for the research that underpinned the book are also included in the chapter.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[There has been a lot of discussion about the level of effectiveness of anti-money laundering (AML) within the United Kingdom (UK) and even globally. Some have attributed the problem with AML to weak regulatory and compliance framework, others lay the blame on the regulated sector for not doing enough to prevent money laundering, while some have attributed the problem to the cost of compliance imposed by the regulators. This book looks at the problem of AML from the perspective of one of the most important stakeholders, the money laundering reporting officers (MLROs), because their voice is often not heard in the debate despite the critical role they play in AML. Consequently, the chapter introduces the problem with AML from the perspective of MLROs. The aims and objectives of the book, the justification for the writing of the book and a brief discussion on the philosophy and methodology adopted for the research that underpinned the book are also included in the chapter.]
