Anti-Money Laundering Regulations for Dealers in Antiquities

Короткий зміст

FinCEN is issuing this advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) to solicit public comment on the implementation of Section 6110 of the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020 (the AML Act). AML Act Section 6110 amends the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) to include in the definition of "financial institution" a "person engaged in the trade of antiquities, including an advisor, consultant, or any other person who engages as a business in the solicitation or the sale of antiquities, subject to regulations prescribed by the Secretary [of the Treasury]." The AML Act requires the Secretary of the Treasury (the Secretary) to issue proposed rules to carry out that amendment not later than 360 days after enactment of the AML Act. This ANPRM seeks initial public comment on questions that will assist FinCEN in preparing the proposed rules.
