Money laundering is the process by which money or other assets of criminal origin (criminal possession) are exchanged for \u201cclean\u201d money or other assets that have no apparent connection to their criminal origin. Criminal possession can take any form, including money or cash, securities, tangible property and intangible property. This definition also includes funds, regardless of their source, used to finance terrorism. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Money laundering is not a one-step process. Methods range from buying and selling luxury goods such as cars or jewelry to moving money through a complex network of legitimate companies. Usually, the process begins with cash, but it is important to note that the definition of money laundering is based on the concept of criminal possession. This can be ownership in any legal form imaginable, whether it is cash, rights, real estate or other benefits. If you know or suspect that these assets are the result of a criminal activity, whether directly or indirectly, and you have not reported it, make yourself a party to the process. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

          Terrorist financing is the process by which legitimate companies and individuals provide financial support to terrorist activities or organizations for ideological, political or other reasons. Companies must therefore ensure that:
          (1) customers are not terrorist organizations
          (2) they do not provide the means by which terrorist organizations finance themselves. <\/p>\n

          Terrorist financing does not necessarily have to come from the proceeds of crime, but rather represents an attempt to conceal the source or intended use of funds that will later be used for criminal purposes. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

          Given the level of due diligence required within a company in relation to anti-money laundering procedures, a risk-based approach should be considered. This means that the resources used to examine a risky business relationship should be proportionate to the level of risk posed by that relationship. Risks can be divided into the following areas: <\/p>\n

            \n
          • Customer Risks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Different risk levels are assigned to different customer profiles. The risk posed by a customer can be determined through a basic KYC (Know Your Customer) check. For example, small regular deposits into a savings account by individuals approaching retirement, in line with their financial capabilities, pose less risk than irregular deposits of varying amounts into a savings account by middle-aged individuals who do not match the current financial situation of the customer. The latter account should be examined in more detail than the former, since the potential threat of money laundering will be higher in the latter case. Corporate structures can be considered as an example of customers who may have a higher risk level than the one just mentioned, as criminals can use these structures to use obfuscation techniques in transactions in order to hide the source of funds. For this reason, customers can be divided into different risk categories. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

              \n
            • Product Risk
              This is the risk posed by the product or service itself. Product risk is due to its function as a money laundering vehicle.
              The Joint Money Laundering Steering Group has divided the products that businesses typically deal with into
              three risk categories: low, medium and high.
              As a general rule, the risks of pure protection contracts are classified as low and the risks of investments in investment funds as high. In addition, the sales process associated with the product plays a role in determining the risk category. If the transaction related to the product is carried out in the context of advice and in accordance with the principles of “know your client”, the risks are lower than in non-advisory transactions, where much less information about the client is available. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

              • Country Risk
                The geographical location of the customer or business origin is exposed to risk. This is because different countries have different levels of risk. The company should determine the scope of its due diligence activities initially and then
                on an ongoing basis using the four risk areas mentioned above. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

                If a business relationship is established with the aim of enabling regular business activities later in the relationship, the firm must know what type of business the client intends to undertake. Once an ongoing business relationship has been established, any regular business activity undertaken on behalf of the client can be compared with the client\u2019s expected business record. Any suspicious activity can then be investigated to determine whether money laundering or terrorist financing is suspected. Information about the client\u2019s income, employment, source of assets and business habits, as well as the economic purpose of each transaction, is typically collected as part of the consulting activities. At the beginning of the relationship, personal information, such as nationality, date of birth and home address, is also collected. This information should also be taken into account in relation to the risks of financial crime (including money laundering and terrorist financing). For transactions that involve high risks, it may be sensible to verify customer information. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

                The usual identification criteria for customers classified as individuals usually depend on the circumstances of the customer and the type of product in question, i.e. the level of risk associated with the product (low, medium or high risk). With this in mind, for low and medium risk products, the following information should be obtained as standard for identification purposes: <\/p>\n

                  \n
                • Customer’s full name<\/li>\n

                  Information obtained must be confirmed by reliable and independent sources. This may be either documents provided by the customer or documents provided electronically by the company, or both. If the transaction is face-to-face, companies must examine the originals of all documents involved in the confirmation process.
                  In order for a person\u2019s identity to be established with a high degree of probability, it is usually necessary to provide, as there is a greater likelihood that documents issued by a public authority, official body or court of law will confirm the existence and characteristics of the person concerned. If an individual is unable to provide such proof of identity, the customer may provide reasonable confirmation of his identity to the company using other documents, although the company must balance this against the risks involved. If identity is established using documents, they must have the following characteristics: <\/p>\n

                  An official document containing the following information:<\/p>\n

                    \n
                  • Customer’s full name<\/li>\n
                  • Residential address<\/li>\n
                  • Official photo ID card<\/li>\n
                  • Valid passport<\/li>\n
                  • ID card<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                    Alternatively, the client may submit an official document that does not contain a photo but contains the client\u2019s full name, supplemented by a second document containing the following information: <\/p>\n

                      \n
                    • Customer’s full name<\/li>\n
                    • Residential address<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                      At Babel there are no deadlines for submitting verification documents. However, submitting these documents is a prerequisite for paying customers.

                      There are signs of suspicious activity that indicate money laundering. These are commonly referred to as red flags. If a red flag is detected, further checks will be conducted before the transaction is executed.
                      If no reasonable explanation is found, the suspicious activity is reported to the Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Committee. <\/p>\n

                      Examples of warning signs include:<\/p>\n

                      The customer is unusually concerned about the Company\u2019s legal reporting requirements and the Company\u2019s anti-money laundering policies, particularly regarding its identity, the nature of its business and assets, or is reluctant to disclose information about its business activities.
                      The customer refuses to provide information or provides unusual or suspicious identity or business documents.
                      The customer wants to execute transactions that do not follow any business logic or any known investment strategy or are inconsistent with the customer\u2019s stated business strategy.
                      The customer\u2019s information indicating the legitimate source of funds turns out to be false, misleading or substantially incorrect.
                      When asked, the customer refuses to identify or provide a legitimate source for its funds or other assets.
                      The client (or any person known to be associated with the client) has a questionable background or is the subject of news reports indicating possible criminal, civil or regulatory wrongdoing. The client demonstrates a lack of concern for risk, commissions or other transaction costs. The client appears to be acting as a contractor for an undisclosed client, but refuses (without legitimate business reasons) to disclose information about that person or company, or is secretive or evasive about it.
                      The client has difficulty describing the nature of their business or lacks general knowledge of the industry.
                      The customer attempts to make frequent or large cash deposits, insists on dealing in cash equivalents, or requests exceptions to the company\u2019s cash and cash equivalents deposit policy. For no apparent reason, the customer has created multiple accounts under one or more names and has made a large number of transactions between internal accounts or between internal and external accounts. <\/p>\n

                      The customer\u2019s account experiences significant, unexplained or unexpected activity, particularly accounts that have had little or no activity in the past.
                      The customer\u2019s account contains a large number of transfers to unrelated third parties that are inconsistent with the customer\u2019s legitimate business purpose.
                      The customer\u2019s account shows transfers that have no apparent business purpose, where funds are transferred to or originate in a country that is at risk of money laundering or is considered a banking haven.
                      The customer\u2019s account contains large or frequent transfers that are withdrawn immediately by check or debit card without any apparent business purpose.
                      The customer makes a deposit, followed immediately by a transfer or transfer to a third party or to another company, without any apparent business purpose.
                      The customer makes a deposit to purchase a long-term investment, followed shortly thereafter by instructions to exit the position and withdraw the proceeds from the account.
                      The customer is instructed to execute the transaction in a manner that bypasses the company\u2019s usual documentation requirements. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

                      A suspicious transaction is often inconsistent with the known and legitimate business or personal activities of the customer or with the usual business activities of that type of customer. Therefore, in order to identify suspicious transactions, it is necessary to first gather sufficient information about the customer’s business to determine whether one or more transactions are unusual. To determine whether a current customer’s transactions are suspicious, you should ask yourself the following questions: <\/p>\n

                        \n
                      • Is the transaction amount consistent with the customer’s traditional activities?<\/li>\n
                      • Does the reason for the transaction fit within the context of the client’s business or private activities?<\/li>\n
                      • Has the customer interaction pattern changed?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

                        After notifying the Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Committee, an investigation will be initiated to determine whether the incident requires reporting to law enforcement or regulatory authorities.
                        The investigation shall include, among other things, an evaluation of all available information, e.g. b. Payment history, dates of birth and address.<\/p>\n

                        If the results of the investigation warrant it, the AML Compliance Committee is recommended to submit a SAR to the relevant law enforcement agency or supervisory authority.
                        The AML Compliance Committee of the organization is responsible for all notifications or reports to law enforcement or regulatory authorities.<\/p>\n

                        Test results will not be published and will only be shared with those who need to know them for legitimate business reasons. Under no circumstances may any officer, employee or authorized representative disclose or discuss
                        any SAR concerns, investigations, notices or information with the person or persons to whom they are subject. This
                        also applies to other persons, including family members of directors, employees or authorized representatives. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
