As the crypto and blockchain industry continues to evolve, we must find the right balance between growing compliance requirements, new (and often uncertain) regulation and business efficiency. With the popularity of cryptocurrency on the rise also comes a new era of money launderers that must be dealt with effectively. In addition, a new FATF initiative (Travel Rule) must be considered for the future of crypto AML. The Travel Rule challenge is worth a detailed discussion: is it another complication or а great tool for mass adoption that could bring crypto to the same level as traditional finance. Join industry leaders at the Crypto Valley Association’s Western Chapter Crypto-AML Event in Lausanne, Switzerland. On March 4th, 2020 the top management and AML/Compliance professionals from crypto-related companies will gather to discuss a variety of topics pertaining to this increasingly important debate. All these discussions will take place at the center of Lausanne, Switzerland. The innovative city serves as a strategic base easily accessible from all major cities. The venue itself is located just a minute from the train, offering scenic views from the Tibits conference rooms. We look forward to seeing you there!
