Reports of money laundering probed by inter-agency task force
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has clarified it can exercise its investigative authority in cases related to grey-money laundering or financial crimes involving scammer networks only if the offences fall under the Securities and Exchange Act.
Regarding recent reports involving alleged money laundering through cryptocurrency transactions or connections between certain brokers and scam networks, deputy secretary-general Anek Yooyuen said multiple agencies are involved in such matters, and all operations are being carried out by an inter-agency task force.
The SEC's jurisdiction is limited to violations related to securities laws, he said.
