The fight against money-laundering, the financing of terrorism and corruption (AML/CFT) has been a major concern of the Principality of Monaco for a number of years.

In order to comply with international obligations and standards, Monaco's laws (AML/CFT) are evolving constantly, and they oblige all businesses subject to them to comply with them.

The legal provisions include an arsenal of criminal and administrative sanctions if these obligations are not complied with.
