The growth in the AML software market in India can be significantly attributed to the factors such as regulatory compliance requirements of financial institutions with international regulatory bodies along with increased volume of wired transactions. Money laundering has been a key concern since the early 90s and it continues to be a significant challenge for economies across the globe.

 

Over the past decade, significant threats of terrorism due to the act of money laundering have become a major concern for regulatory bodies (outside India) such as Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) and Financial Action Task Force (FATF). Money laundering is the process of showing illegally acquired money to appear as legal. The act of money laundering generally involves three steps that are placement, layering, and integration.

India, with an AML index score of 5.28, ranks 68th in the list of 129 countries provided by the Basel Institute of Governance, which is an independent non-profit competence centre working to strengthen quality of governance, counter corruption and other financial crimes.

Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002 came into existence in 2005, due to persistent problems with money laundering activities that the country had been facing despite India having one of the robust anti-money laundering systems. The government of India ensures that the financial institutions comply with the foreign-exchange laws, transaction reporting requirements, and KYC norms. The government has taken measures such as the demonetization in 2016 targeting the shell companies in the country to curb the money laundering activities in India. Such initiatives by the government are expected to play a major role in defining the future of money laundering in India.

In the Hawala method, a common money laundering method in India, an individual can access or transfer money from one location to another without the involvement of an authorized person. Also, the Hawala method of transferring money occurs at different foreign exchange rates, as stated by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). The key features of this system include transferring value without moving funds. India has always been a target of several terrorist groups and these groups launder money using Hawala.

The most common methods for laundering money in the financial institutions have been opening multiple bank accounts, purchasing bank checks with cash, and routing funds through complex legal structures. India had 9,600,000 currency transaction reports registered in 2013-2014.

According to Yash Agrawal, Analyst at BIS Research, "The adoption of analytics and machine learning in AML is increasing the adoption of anti-money laundering software in crypto currency market and emerging economies. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) in AML along with KYC are the major factors which are expected to create lucrative opportunities for the market in the next five years. The market is packed with advancements in anti-money laundering systems, in order to promote digital currency activities. Additionally, cloud-based solutions are expected to witness a significant growth during the forecast period, owing to the lower cost of implementation than that in the on-premise deployment models."
