 Money laundering has become a global problem as a result of the

confluence of several remarkable changes in world markets (i.e., the
globalization of markets). The growth in international trade, the expansion
of the global financial system, the lowering of barriers to international
travel, and the surge in the internalization of organized crime have
combined to provide the source, opportunity, and means for converting
illegal proceeds into what appears to be legitimate funds. Money
laundering can have devastating effects on the soundness of financial
institutions and undermine the political stability of democratic nations.
Criminals quickly transfer large sums of money to and from countries
through financial systems by wire and personal computers.
Money laundering is a global menace that cannot be contained by any
nation alone. The prevention of money laundering bill 2011 was
necessitated in view of India being an important member of the FATF and
to bring prevention of money laundering on par with global norms
