Money laundering has been a major instrument through which major atrocities have been funded in this world, including wars, terrorism, government corruption, human trafficking, illegal gun trade, and drug trafficking, amongst many others. Several governments, including that of Nigeria, have come up with laws, rules, and regulations all in a bid to eliminate money laundering and save the world from its effects.
Some of these laws and regulations are the Money Laundering (Prohibition) Act, 2011 (as amended), Terrorism (Prevention) Act, 2011 (as amended), and the Central Bank of Nigeria (Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism in Banks, and other Financial Institutions in Nigeria) Regulations, 2013.
Breet, as a responsible company, frowns at and is committed to fighting, money laundering, and fully complying with anti-money laundering laws in Nigeria.
We are aware of the difficulties and risks that come with digital assets transactions, making it a popular channel for money laundering. To keep our company free of money launderers, we have come up with policies and structures that ensure that we comply with all government laws and regulations set up to fight money laundering. We have also taken steps to implement policies, independent of government input, which the company believes aids in preventing money laundering on its platform.
Our policies and structures are regularly updated to keep our company compliant with changes in regulations and to keep us abreast and compliant with international best practices.
In complying with the extant money-laundering laws and regulations, and international best practices, we:
a) Created a compliance unit that is headed by a compliance officer who spearheads the company’s anti-money laundering policy implementation in line with government policies;
b) Do regular background checks on suspicious users based on transactions processed within the platform.
c) Are dedicated to the development of vetting systems to manage and mitigate risks of money laundering, discover suspicious transactions, and report such transactions to the relevant authorities;
d) Review and identify areas of potential money-laundering risks and report such risks to the relevant authorities;
e) Placed necessary transaction limits which are regularly reviewed by the company based on government policy or industry standards;
f) Constantly cooperate with investigative efforts of security agencies and relevant government agencies by placing a lien on accounts being investigated for fraud, money laundering, and any other criminal activity.
This Terms and each Transaction entered into with you is in all respects governed by Nigerian Law and the courts of Nigeria will have non-exclusive jurisdiction to settle any disputes that may arise in relation thereto.
