Green Assets Hub does not tolerate money laundering and supports the fight against financial crime. Financial Services follows the guidelines set by the [Specify German Regulatory Body, e.g., BaFin] and the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), the intergovernmental body whose purpose is to combat money laundering and terrorist financing. Germany is a full member of the FATF.

Green Assets Hub has robust policies in place to deter and detect illicit money movement.

Stages of Money Laundering

Money laundering occurs when funds from an illegal/criminal activity are moved through the financial system in such a way as to make it appear that the funds have come from legitimate sources.

Money Laundering Usually follows three stages:

• Placement: Cash or cash equivalents are introduced into the financial system.
• Layering: Money is transferred or moved to other accounts, through a series of complex financial transactions designed to obscure the origin of the money.
• Integration: The funds are re-introduced into the economy so that the funds appear to have come from legitimate sources (e.g., withdrawing profits from a trading account).

Our AML Controls

Trading accounts can be used to launder illicit funds. To mitigate this risk, Green Assets Hub implements:

• Know Your Customer (KYC): Mandatory collection and verification of client identity and address information.
• Transaction Monitoring: Continuous scrutiny of client transactions to detect unusual patterns or suspicious activity.
• Source of Funds/Wealth Verification: Requesting documentation to verify the origin of large deposits.
• Withdrawal Policy: Funds withdrawal is strictly directed back to the original source of remittance (the account used for deposit), as a primary preventive measure (Closed Loop Policy).
• Reporting: Mandatory reporting of suspicious activities to the relevant Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU).

International Anti-money Laundering requires financial services institutions to be aware of potential money laundering abuses that could occur in a customer account and implement a compliance program to deter, detect and report potential suspicious activity. These guidelines have been implemented to protect Green Assets Hub and its clients.
