In collaboration with Central Banking, Kroll conducted a survey of central banks across a variety of jurisdictions to explore how they are addressing anti-money laundering (AML) and countering the financing of terrorism (CFT) risks.
Findings include:
-
Central banks highlighted cross-border payments as a key risk area
-
Supervisory models are under pressure as the payments landscape shifts with the growth of payment and e-money firms
-
The increased use of data analytics and the adoption of risk-based supervision models is enabling central banks to overcome resourcing challenges and manage risk more effectively and efficiently
-
AML/CFT supervisors are co-operating domestically, but more cross-border collaboration is needed to effectively tackle shared financial crime risks
