<![CDATA[Climate change is a global issue with visible impacts such as rising sea levels, heat waves in temperate countries, mutations of certain viruses, and melting ice in the Arctic. The primary solution to this problem is reducing greenhouse gas emissions through domestic efforts on various projects and additional mechanisms such as carbon trading. However, as an innovation in the financial services sector, carbon trading poses risks and potential for money laundering (ML) use. This study aims to provide an overview of current carbon trading practices and discuss the potential for using carbon trading for ML in Indonesia. It also aims to address relevant legal principles and issues. The study employs descriptive-analytical and normative methods to identify ML potential and uncover substantive issues within existing legal provisions. The results reveal that the mechanisms of using carbon credits and rights are vulnerable to ML use in and outside the Carbon Exchange (primary market). Moreover, the underdeveloped state of trading systems, institutions, legal provisions, transparency, and supervision exacerbates this. Prevention measures include implementing Know Your Customer principles and reporting suspicious financial transactions. Law enforcement refers to the provisions of Articles 3, 4, 5, and 6 of the Money Laundering Law.]]>

<![CDATA[The issue of terrorism in Indonesia has escalated from causing problems in its home country to other countries. These new groups of terrorists are called Foreign Terrorist Fighters (FTFs). The qualitative method used in this paper to analyse the emergence of Indonesian FTFs to Syria to fight alongside the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) by using the theoretical framework of Political Economy Analysis (PEA), Market Analysis (MA), and Theory of Change. By using PEA, it could be argued that at the macro, sectoral, and micro levels, the emergence of Indonesian FTFs is inevitable. The use of MA also supports the emergence of Indonesian FTFs and how to intervene in them. Finally, this paper argued the theory of change to stop the flow of Indonesian FTFs, namely deterrence for supporters of Indonesian FTFs, communicate effectively with people influenced by terrorist doctrine, and change the culture by redefining the concept of jihad and applying it to the current Islamic education curriculum. Despite the fact that Indonesian FTFs to Syria have ceased since the defeat of ISIS, this paper argues that PEA, MA, and the Theory of Change can be used to analyse the future movement of Indonesian FTFs and to take preventative measures against it.]]>

<![CDATA[The Indonesian Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (Indonesian: Pusat Pelaporan dan Analisis Transaksi Keuangan, or PPATK) has made several efforts to prevent and combat money laundering and terrorism financing. The main outputs of PPATK are financial intelligence reports known as Analysis Results and Examination Results. To date, these financial intelligence reports cannot be categorized as evidence that can be used by law enforcement officers in investigations or prosecutions. This study uses the Normative Juridical Dogmatic research method, aiming to provide legal arguments regarding the importance of the status of PPATK's financial intelligence reports in investigations/prosecutions as evidence. The novelty of this research lies in how the author attempts to prove that financial intelligence reports can be used as evidence in criminal cases, whereas previous studies have only stated that financial intelligence reports cannot be used as evidence in criminal cases. The findings of this study indicate that PPATK's financial intelligence reports should be admissible as evidence in handling criminal cases, but this is currently hindered by the existing laws on money laundering and terrorism financing. These regulations need to be revised promptly to strengthen the role of PPATK, particularly in the status of financial intelligence reports in supporting criminal cases.]]>

<![CDATA[Technology has revolutionized finance, but seamless services increase fraud risks. As digital finance grows, anti-money laundering (AML) systems struggle with high transaction volumes. The main objective of this study is to verify whether open banking catalyzes the efficiency of transaction monitoring in AML. Another objective is to analyze the current agenda of regulators in Indonesia, which is related to the Indonesia Payment Systems Blueprint 2025 and customer data security. The Delphi technique pinpointed contemporary AML compliance technologies, encompassing money laundering, Regulatory Technology, and regulatory bodies. The article delves into a comparative analysis between Regulatory Technology and financial crime, which emphasizes several actions to eradicate money laundering, such as strengthening the AML system, customer screening, and allowing cross-data sharing between institutions. In addition, this paper explores RegTech's limitations and forthcoming hurdles regarding AML compliance. The finding shows that open banking catalyzes the efficiency of transaction monitoring in AML and supports the regulator's agenda to combat money laundering with some requirements.]]>

<![CDATA[The utilization of proceeds from criminal activities for political campaign purposes in the context of General Elections, as donations from external sources, is feasible under money laundering practices. Relevant criminal provisions addressing this issue include Article 339, paragraph (1) of letter c of the Election Law, Article 5, paragraph (1) of the Money Laundering Law, and Article 137 of the Narcotics Law. Given that these provisions are lex specialis, it is essential to elucidate the parameters that will guide law enforcement officials in addressing the use of criminal proceeds for political campaigns and other electoral contests. This research employs normative juridical legal methods, focusing on an inventory of positive law. The findings indicate that the lex specialis derogat legi generali principle applies in implementing Article 339 paragraph (1) letter c of the Election Law, particularly concerning campaign participants receiving campaign fund donations from criminal activities. Article 5, paragraph (1) of the Money Laundering Law pertains to individuals who receive money or assets from criminal activities without the election participants' status. Election participants who accept the proceeds of crime for campaign funds may be suspected of being active perpetrators of money laundering or as parties who commit or facilitate money laundering.]]>

<![CDATA[The circulation of illicit money is still a concern for Indonesia in realizing equitable welfare for all people. One of the sources of illicit money circulating in Indonesia comes from tax evasion, where the source can come from within or outside the country. Tax evasion is actually inseparable from money laundering, which is a sophisticated crime that requires special treatment in its enforcement. This research tries to examine mutual legal assistance (MLA) as an instrument in law enforcement on cross-border tax evasion. This study uses normative legal research methods with a statute approach and a conceptual approach and is descriptive research. This research shows that the crime of tax evasion cannot be separated from money laundering and can be carried out across countries. To overcome this, MLA is one of the recommendations for the prevention and eradication of anti-corruption from transnational tax crimes in Indonesia. Unfortunately, this MLA approach has not been implemented effectively and efficiently because Indonesia does not have strong regulations related to asset confiscation.]]>

<![CDATA[Corruption and money laundering are global issues with significant economic impacts, particularly in Asia and Europe. This comparative study explores the relationship between national culture, public governance, and money laundering potential, focusing on cultural differences between the East and West. Utilizing a quantitative approach, the study analyzes secondary data from the 2023 Basel Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Index, covering 49 Asian and 47 European countries. Structural Equation Modelling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) is employed for analysis. The findings reveal that cultural dynamics significantly and positively influence public governance. However, public governance and cultural dynamics do not directly affect the potential for money laundering. Mediation tests indicate that public governance mediates the relationship between cultural dynamics and money laundering potential. A Multigroup Analysis (MGA) test highlights significant regional differences, particularly in the influence of public governance on money laundering potential. The study underscores the need for multifaceted strategies to combat money laundering globally, emphasizing international collaboration, public education, governance enhancement, and technological advancement. Recommendations for the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) include strengthening cross-country cooperation and improving public governance frameworks to mitigate global money laundering risks effectively.]]>

<![CDATA[To attract significant foreign investment and boost national economic growth, it is essential to examine the risks of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) misuse as a medium for Money Laundering (ML) in Indonesia. This study explores the potential misuse of FDI in facilitating ML, identifies the vulnerabilities, and recommends policy measures to address these risks. Using a normative legal research approach, the study found that FDI activities in Indonesia are vulnerable to misuse due to the lack of technical regulations mandating verification of shareholder authenticity and paid-up capital during company registration. Additionally, inadequate coordination between financial institutions, the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (INTRAC), and the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) exacerbates the issue. To mitigate ML risks in FDI, the study highlights the need to strengthen the anti-money laundering regime, enhance regulatory frameworks in the investment sector aligned with Financial Action Task Force (FATF) Recommendation 24 on transparency and beneficial ownership, and promote synergy among key stakeholders.]]>

<![CDATA[Cryptocurrencies have grown rapidly and are used in various cross-border transactions. The negative impact of cryptocurrencies includes the misuse of crimes, especially in funding the weapons of mass destruction (WMD) proliferation. This article examines how cryptocurrency can be utilized in WMD proliferation funding and the challenges faced in overcoming this problem. The method used is a normative research method with a conceptual approach. The research found that cryptocurrency characteristics such as high anonymity and cross-border transactions make it easier for WMD proliferation funding perpetrators to hide funding traces. The lack of transparency in the blockchain adds to the difficulty in tracking WMD proliferation funds. The suggestion from this research is that there is a need for stronger international cooperation and a financial system that can detect and prevent the spread of nuclear material.]]>

<![CDATA[Green financial crime seriously threatens the sustainability of the environment and the integrity of the global economy. This study aims to investigate the role of environmental initiatives to religious foundations with a religious foundation in countering green financial crime by reviewing relevant literature, examining religious teachings on environmental stewardship, and evaluating the influence of religious advocacy on public policy and community behavior. In the practical sense in the Indonesian context, Muhammadiyah's humanitarian arm has been involved in disaster relief, focusing on environmental sustainability in recovery efforts. This includes advocating for better waste management and building resilient, eco-friendly infrastructure in disaster-prone areas. These initiatives highlight how organizations use their religious influence, aligning faith-based teachings with practical efforts. Thematic analysis is used in this study to find and examine themes and patterns in the data gathered. The results of this study show that faith-based activities play a significant role in the local and global fight against green financial crime. It is essential for religious organizations to prioritize environmental awareness because of the pressing nature of environmental crises and the significant moral, ethical, and practical effect that religion has. The integration of religious ideas and the utilization of religion-based organizations' strengths can significantly augment efforts aimed at combating green financial crime, thereby resulting in more equitable and sustainable outcomes for both society and the environment.]]>
