London, 8th January – Eterbase is known for taking a quality-driven approach and is touted as the ‘bank-grade cryptocurrency exchange’ and wallet with a focus on functionality, security and regulatory compliance.
With the European Union’s 5th Anti Money Laundering Directive coming into enforcement as well as the upcoming FATF requirements, Eterbase has joined other leading exchanges such as Binance in recently integrating Coinfirm’s AML Platform and analytics solutions.
The 5th Anti-Money Laundering Directive or AMLD5 is an EU directive for the prevention of the use of the financial system for the purposes of money laundering and terrorist financing. The new pan-European AML regulations will impact the cryptocurrency market heavily as cryptocurrencies will face more stringent controls, with exchanges among other things being required to strictly implement effective AML solutions register with the relevant authorities in their jurisdictions, conduct customer due diligence, and prepare suspicious activity reports where these are deemed necessary.
These stricter requirements, although necessary to fight back against the impact of financial crime and progress the overall adoption of cryptocurrencies, can add significantly to the day-to-day challenges faced by obliged entities, especially given that many compliance teams already experience time and resource constraints.
Founded in 2016, Coinfirm provides an array of solutions that automate and streamline AML and analytics for cryptocurrencies, allowing not just for entities such as Eterbase to fulfill their requirements but do more effectively and efficiently than ever before. Whether AML Risk Reports with 270 risk checks and data points ranging from financial crime to counterparty identity, Real-Time Cryptocurrency Monitoring, tracking and investigation of funds, or customization of risk and analytics data, the Coinfirm Platform provides a full suite for exchanges.
