問題詳情

依下文回答第 16 題至第 20 題The concept of money laundering regulations goes back to ancient times and is intertwined with thedevelopment of money and banking. Money laundering is first seen with individuals hiding wealth from thegovernment to avoid taxation or confiscation or a combination of both. Nowadays it has evolved into acomplex and highly technical process of transforming profits from illegal activities into 16 “legitimate”assets without raising the suspicion of law enforcement agencies.

These regulations require financialinstitutions to have systems in place to detect and report suspected money-laundering activities. Accordingly,law enforcement agencies of many jurisdictions have set up sophisticated systems in an effort to detectsuspicious transactions or activities, and many have set up international cooperative arrangements to assisteach other in these 18 .However, the use of the Internet allows money launderers to easily 19 detection. The rise of onlinebanking institutions, anonymous online payment services, peer-to-peer transfers using mobile phones, andthe use of virtual currencies such as Bitcoin have made detecting the illegal transfer of money even moredifficult. Money can also be laundered through online auctions and sales, gambling websites, and even virtualgaming sites, where ill-gotten money is converted into gaming currency, then transferred back into real,usable, and 20 “clean” money.As money launderers attempt to keep one step ahead of law enforcement, international organizationsand governments are continuing their team effort to find new ways to detect them.
