DAXA, a consultative body of digital asset exchanges, said on Wednesday it held a briefing at Dreamplus Gangnam in Seoul for domestic digital asset businesses on the 2026 anti-money laundering (AML) implementation assessment.
The briefing was arranged after some indicators used in the annual AML implementation assessment by the Financial Intelligence Unit were improved. It aims to help businesses clearly understand the changed evaluation items and criteria and prepare efficiently in the workplace.
The briefing shared the overall structure and key changes in the revamped AML implementation assessment indicators. It also provided detailed guidance on specific evaluation criteria practitioners should note.
Kim Jae-jin (김재진), DAXA's standing vice chairman, said the briefing was held to help businesses strengthen their anti-money laundering capabilities in step with the revamped system. He said the consultative body would continue to provide active support so the broader digital asset industry can respond proactively and effectively to regulatory changes.
