The PMLA Framework refers to the Prevention of Money Laundering Act framework, a legal structure designed to combat money laundering and terrorist financing. In the context of digital assets, this framework imposes obligations on crypto businesses to report suspicious transactions and conduct customer due diligence. It aims to integrate digital asset activities into existing anti-financial crime regulations. Adherence to PMLA is mandatory for regulated entities.
