Abstract:
The research examines the impact of a newly emerging type of anti-money laundering regulation that obligates cryptocurrency exchanges to report suspicious transactions to financial authorities. The scholars build a theoretical model for the reporting decision structure of a private bank or cryptocurrency exchange and show that an inferior ability to detect money laundering (ML) increases the ratio of reported transactions to unreported transactions. The findings suggest that cryptocurrency exchanges will exhibit more excessive reporting behavior under this regulation than private banks.
