Anti Money Laundering Policy for Pin Up Casino Bangladesh
1. Introduction
1.1 Money Laundering
Money Laundering, often referred to as ML, involves concealing the origins of funds acquired through unlawful actions such as drug trafficking or terrorism. Individuals engaged in ML alter the appearance of these funds, transform their form, or transfer them to locations that are less prone to scrutiny.
1.2 Anti-Money Laundering
The term Anti-money laundering (AML) denotes the legal structures that obligate financial institutions and other regulated entities to avert, identify, and report actions suggestive of money laundering. A successful AML strategy necessitates a jurisdiction:
- Designating ML as a criminal act
- Equipping regulators and law enforcement bodies with the power to conduct investigations.
- Financial institutions must identify their clients, apply risk-based controls, maintain records, and report any suspicious activities.
- To facilitate the sharing of information with other regions when necessary
