As global policymakers continue to build legal and regulatory frameworks for cryptocurrency, compliance professionals at cryptocurrency businesses and financial institutions are working to ensure that they are building robust policies and procedures to mitigate the risks of fraud and financial crime.
In this TRM Talk, we’ll look at today's key issues and challenges for compliance teams in the digital asset space, including:
- Key differences between traditional (fiat) currencies versus cryptocurrencies when it comes to AML policies and procedures
- How to assess sanctions exposure - direct and indirect - in an increasingly complex geopolitical time
- How to manage risk for areas in which there is no regulatory guidance, including engaging with DeFi platforms and liquidity pools
This video is hosted by TRM Labs, a blockchain analytics company. We work with crypto businesses, financial institutions and government agencies to monitor, detect and investigate fraud and financial crime in crypto.
