It's time for America to think differently about money laundering and risk assessment
Briefly

The U.S. administration has taken significant steps back from its commitment to combat financial crime, exemplified by changes to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and FinCEN's new rules. These reversals, such as allowing U.S. companies to hide beneficial ownership, have raised alarms internationally. Critics argue this policy shift could negatively impact the U.S.’s reputation and effectiveness in the global financial system. Concerns from European nations reflect a growing unease over the implications of these changes, with fears that the U.S. is allowing unethical practices to flourish.

The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) plays a crucial role in maintaining international reputations, highlighting the importance of compliance in the fight against money laundering.
