Summary

This chapter delves into the intricate relationship between digital assets, specifically non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and the regulatory landscape of anti-money laundering (AML) and counter financing of terrorism (CFT). With the rapid emergence of NFTs, new challenges and opportunities have arisen, necessitating an exploration of evolving regulatory frameworks and enforcement measures to combat AML and CFT risks associated with digital assets. This chapter focuses on the unique characteristics of NFTs, AML, and CFT risks within the NFT market, global regulatory developments, compliance challenges, technological solutions, enforcement actions, collaborative efforts, and future trends. By analyzing these aspects, this chapter aims to provide insights for policy-makers, regulators, scholars, and industry participants in effectively addressing financial crime risks in the digital asset landscape.
