Abstract :
Money laundering poses significant risks to investment banks, undermining market integrity and threatening financial stability. This paper explores the preventive measures against money laundering (AML) in investment banks, focusing on the role of regulatory frameworks in shaping these measures. It discusses the key regulatory guidelines including the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) recommendations, The Anti-Money Laundering Act 2020 (AMLA), The USA PATRIOT Act 2001 and The Bank Secrecy Act 1970 (BSA). The paper also examines the challenges faced by investment banks in ensuring compliance with these regulations, including the complexity of cross-border regulations, the integration of emerging technologies, and the evolving tactics used by criminals. Finally, the paper proposes solutions to enhance the effectiveness of preventive measures to improve risk-based approaches, and global regulatory harmonization.
