Anti Money Laundering (AML) —

This is something of an umbrella term and refers to the whole complex of laws, regulations, and procedures devoted to the unearthing of attempts to legitimize illegitimate funds. Laundering is an offense in itself, but is also commonly linked to other criminal activities since it is employed to cash in from illegal operations such as asset theft, fraud, and illicit trade.

AML includes a number of processes, mainly connected to screening, flagging up, monitoring and reporting dubious transactions and clients. In a lot of countries, companies and financial institutions have to comply with strict legal guidelines in their business interactions. For organizations, two major processes lie at the heart of this: "Know Your Customer" (KYC) identity verification, and customer due diligence.

At a basic level, the KYC process centers around gaining reliable verification that a potential client is indeed who they say they are. But in fact, it goes beyond this to a close examination of the subject’s past financial activities, checking that deposits they have received are also from reliable sources. It also extends to screening for whether the potential customer is under sanction.

Customer due diligence is essentially the part of the KYC process that is most investigative and painstaking in its nature. For instance, it doesn’t just verify the identity of a company, but the identity of all its major beneficiaries. It also involves looking into the nature of the subject’s customer ties to elaborate risk profiles, and conducting continual monitoring of customers to stay updated with their financial activities.
