ICONOMI Partners With Elliptic for AML Capabilities and Real-time Crypto Wallet Screening
ICONOMI, the FCA registered digital currency social investing platform that allows users to buy and sell crypto as well as mirror successful crypto strategies, has today announced a new deal with anti-money laundering (AML) and compliance specialists to the crypto industry, Elliptic.
Through the Elliptic software, ICONOMI’s compliance team will be even better positioned to manage risk across all supported crypto assets and continue to fulfil regulatory requirements.
The real-time screening of crypto wallets will better protect ICOMOMI’s business from financial crime, allowing it to uncover any links to money laundering, terrorist financing, and sanctioned entities. By developing holistic risk profiles of a wallet and taking into account any and all transactions across all major blockchains and assets will also mean the honest, true customers will be more secure than ever.
Peter Curk, CEO of ICONOMI, said: “ICONOMI is committed to safeguarding our users’ assets and improving our AML capabilities. Elliptic matches our vision by demonstrating a track-record of constant innovation and improvements to its products. Together we will be able to set the highest industry standard and offer a trustworthy and secure environment for all.
“The fact is that just like any financial services industry or market, ‘crypto’ continues to be targeted by those looking to exploit or gain an unfair advantage through criminal activity. For our sector it is never far from the headlines, but the majority of traders, investors, entrepreneurs, tokens and firms in our industry are doing what we can to change that. Working with Elliptic means we are at the forefront of fighting all forms of money laundering and we’re excited to bring this to our customer-base.”
