Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

Indonesia became a dual member of the Asia/Pacific Group (APG) and Financial Action Task Force (FATF) in October 2023, having previously been grey listed twice in the past 20 years. Meanwhile, Vietnam was added to the Jurisdiction Under Increased Monitoring list in June 2023, despite being an APG member since 2007. This study compares the AML/CFT/CPF risks, threats, and compliance between these two Southeast Asian developing economies using six indicators: Human Development Index (HDI), Corruption Perception Index (CPI), Gross Domestic Products (GDP), Anti Money Laundering (AML) regulations, National Risk Assessment (NRA), and Mutual Evaluation Report (MER). Findings show Vietnam’s HDI ranking surpasses Indonesia’s, but Vietnam lags in GDP and AML regulations. Both countries share similar AML risks, threats, and CPI scores. However, Indonesia’s approach prioritizes national interests over international ones, contributing to its FATF compliance success. This comparative analysis offers valuable insights for Vietnam and other grey-listed Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries seeking to enhance compliance with FATF Recommendations.

Abstract

Advances in digital technology continue to generate increasingly sophisticated strategies aimed at exploiting vulnerabilities and targeting financial platforms and their customers. Within the banking industry, it has become evident that financial crimes no longer stem solely from internal actors but also from cyberattacks carried out by hackers. The rising number of media reports documenting fraud cases affecting numerous organizations, particularly banks, and the resulting financial and non-financial losses have drawn significant public attention. The disclosure of numerous fraud cases in the banking sector through mass media has served as a striking reminder to companies that fraud is an unavoidable reality. This study employs a qualitative approach using descriptive methods to facilitate a clearer understanding of emerging crime trends, both in cybersecurity and in fraud schemes, that are frequently experienced by the public, particularly within the banking sector. As fraud-related threats and financial crimes directed at the banking sector continue to escalate rapidly, driven by ongoing digital advancements, banking institutions must be prepared to deliver comprehensive and proactive responses. Several cybersecurity trends require heightened vigilance within the banking industry. First, ransomware has emerged as a major global threat affecting organizations worldwide. Second, the persistent risks associated with remote work have increased the potential for cybersecurity vulnerabilities within the banking sector. Third, cloud-based cyberattacks have become increasingly prevalent as more software systems and data are stored on cloud platforms. Fourth, social engineering can occur in various forms, including phishing and whaling attacks, as well as the distribution of fraudulent invoices disguised as legitimate communications. Fifth, supply chain attacks, a method of disseminating malware through compromised third-party systems, are becoming increasingly popular among cybercriminals. The rapid advancement of technology has significantly transformed how people engage in banking activities. Today, individuals can perform online banking transactions digitally through their smartphones. This development inevitably requires the banking sector to provide secure and trustworthy online banking services. Among the most common forms of fraud experienced in online banking transactions are social engineering and phishing schemes.

Abstract

This study aims to examine and analyze the implementation of the Customer Due Diligence (CDD) principle by notaries in supporting the prevention of Money Laundering (ML) and Terrorist Financing (TF) in Indonesia. Focusing on a research area anonymized as [XYZ], this socio-legal study gathered data through surveys and in-depth interviews with notaries. The findings reveal variations in the knowledge, understanding, attitudes, and legal behaviour of notaries regarding the application of CDD. Despite implementing regulations such as PPATK Regulation No. 3 of 2021 on the procedure for submitting Suspicious Financial Transaction Reports (LTKM) via GoAML, some notaries still face challenges in compliance and reporting. The study concludes that enhanced training, awareness, and oversight are necessary to strengthen the implementation of CDD to support ML/TF prevention more effectively. The main recommendation of this research is to strengthen collaboration between the government, professional associations, and legal education institutions to ensure notarial compliance with CDD regulations.
