FATF calls for stricter anti-money laundering regulations for cryptocurrencies

The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) emphasized the need for stricter anti-money laundering regulations (AML) for the cryptocurrency sector in a current message. This request comes against the background of regulatory gaps that, according to FATF, could endanger global financial security, although progress has recently been made in the enforcement of regulations.

The FATF is an intergovernmental organization that develops guidelines and standards to combat money laundering and terrorism financing. She pointed out that the rapid development and the increasing acceptance of cryptocurrencies bring new challenges in the area of ​​regulation. Despite the efforts in many countries to implement appropriate regulations, there are still considerable gaps that could be exploited.

A central point of the FATF is that uniform and robust regulation in the area of ​​cryptocurrencies is essential to ensure trust in the global financial systems. If countries are not coordinated against money laundering and other illegal activities in the cryptocelt, criminal systems could take advantage of washing funds or fining terrorist activities.

In summary, the FATF calls on the countries to check their regulatory framework and to adapt it if necessary in order to meet the constantly changing challenges in the area of ​​cryptocurrencies. These measures are crucial to protect the integrity and security of the global financial system in the long term.
