AML regulations are enforced at both global and national levels. Institutions like the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) sets the international standard, while regulators like FinCEN (U.S.) and the FCA (U.K.) ensure local enforcement. Staying compliant means keeping up with both. To learn more about who regulates AML in the banking industry.
