Cryptocurrency regulation across the West African region is maturing but there are still some inconsistencies/gaps across some jurisdictions. This and the increasing sophistication of criminals means that organisations need effective solutions and support to help them understand their exposure to cryptocurrency, investigate and recover stolen funds and advance their Anti-Money Laundering/Combatting Financing of Terrorism/Countering Proliferation Financing (AML/CFT/CPF). KPMG Nigeria and KPMG Ghana and Chainalysis recognise this risk and the corresponding opportunity and will leverage its alliance and expertise of both firms to: 1. help meet the growing need of businesses (financial institutions, Virtual Assets Service Providers, etc) 2. detect and prevent illicit activities related to cryptocurrency by providing enhanced crypto-assets investigation, training facilitation/support, AML/CFT/CPF current state assessment etc. 3. help organisations protect their critical assets and be ahead of the curve in rapidly evolving world of cryptocurrency regulations in the African region.

We're proud to be a part of the Illicit Virtual Asset Notification (IVAN) information sharing initiative alongside partners in the public and private sectors
As a trusted advisor to government, MITRE works across government and industry to connect key stakeholders. In 2021, the White House called for an Illicit Virtual Asset Notification (IVAN) Public-Private Partnership. MITRE is the steward of that partnership, supporting information sharing to collaborate against and disrupt digital crimes. We will continue to enhance both the technical capabilities of the sharing platform, as well as the global footprint of the partnership, to rout out nefarious actors hoping to hide behind virtual assets and the underlying blockchain technology. https://lnkd.in/dJ-H3jP9
