The prevention of money laundering is a key focus of regulatory authorities in developed countries. The prevention of money laundering inhibits the movement of funds derived from criminal activity and restricts the availability of money to fund terrorist activities. OzForex is committed to preventing money laundering through its service and complies with regulatory requirements including:- Identifying clients
- Monitoring and reporting suspicious transactions
