AML enforcement pertains to the regulatory actions and legal processes undertaken by authorities to ensure compliance with Anti-Money Laundering laws. These measures compel financial institutions and digital asset service providers to report suspicious transactions and verify customer identities. The objective is to deter and detect illicit financial activities, including terrorism financing and fraud. Effective enforcement maintains financial system integrity.
