Global Compliance Framework

Definition ∞ A global compliance framework refers to a standardized set of international rules, regulations, and best practices designed to ensure legal adherence across multiple jurisdictions. In the digital asset sector, such frameworks aim to harmonize approaches to anti-money laundering, counter-terrorist financing, and tax reporting. They provide a unified standard for operational conduct for global entities.
Context ∞ The development of a cohesive global compliance framework for digital assets remains a primary focus for international bodies like the FATF and OECD. Achieving consensus among diverse national legal systems presents a significant challenge. However, such a framework is essential for mitigating systemic risks and fostering market integrity.
