Anti Money Laundering

Money Laundering is the process/act that disguises the illegal origin of the money. Money Laundering is the result of a large number of criminal acts to generate a profit for an individual or group that carries out the act. Now a days money laundering has turned into a serious crime and in the last couple of years, the world has a serious concern towards it. Various measures have been taken to stop this unlawful act. Even in some countries, regulatory bodies have been formed to eliminate this crime. It is essential for us to know the effects which money laundering is creating on our economy specifically and our society in general as mostly under developed countries become the victim of this where the law enforcement agencies are unable to play their respective roles. That results in the following effects:
