With payments increasingly becoming available at the click of a button, money launderers are turning to online payments in order to wash their illicit funds. As a result, it has never been so important for PSPs to identify their AML vulnerabilities and mitigate the growing risk.

The global payment processing market expected to nearly double to $2.9 trillion by 2030, But while this may be good news for the sector, as the volume, speed, and sophistication of digital payments grow, so will the anti-money laundering (AML) vulnerabilities of payment service providers (PSPs).

PSPs are already under attack from a wide range of criminal activities, so it is incumbent upon every business to identify and mitigate these threats, before the problem becomes insurmountable.

Through robust and rigorous risk management processes, PSPs can more easily identify and counter the threat from opportunistic financial criminals. 

The first, and arguably most important step, is to identify the weaknesses in your existing compliance framework, so as to be better prepared to deal with this ever-growing risk.

The mounting pressures mean that it is now absolutely crucial that PSPs take a far more proactive, risk-based approach to combatting money laundering.
