AML Frameworks are structured sets of policies, procedures, and regulations designed to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing. These frameworks mandate financial institutions, including those operating with digital assets, to monitor transactions and report suspicious activities. Their purpose is to maintain financial system integrity by detecting and deterring illicit fund movements. Adherence to these guidelines is crucial for legal operation within regulated financial sectors.
