From the Paper:
"United Kingdom plays a very vital role in making decisions that promote anti money laundering finance practices mainly because London is one of the main financial centres. The UK has a sophisticated anti money laundering architecture that involves the regulatory, criminal and the civil law. The three main structures that are responsible for combating money laundering in the UK are the government, financial system authority and the joint money laundering steering group. The role of the government is to define the criminal offences and create regulations that combat money laundering."Sample of Sources Used:
