On-chain transaction monitoring & SARs

asked by u/felix_a · 13d · 1 answers

For those dealing with crypto, particularly smaller funds or brokerages, what's your approach to effective on-chain transaction monitoring for AML? Specifically, when does a cluster of smaller, seemingly unrelated transactions become significant enough to warrant deeper scrutiny or even an internal SAR, even if individually they don't hit a threshold? Is it more about the pattern or the cumulative value over time?

    That's a great question about the cumulative effect. I've found it's less about a hard cumulative number and more about the context of the transactions and the client's profile. Are there specific patterns you're seeing that raise a flag?
