According to TechFlow news, on December 25, the Central Bank of Russia is developing a new monitoring platform to combat illegal cryptocurrency over-the-counter trading services and enhance financial security.
Sources revealed that this initiative is being implemented in cooperation with Rosfinmonitoring. The platform will centralize information on suspicious activities, enabling banks to take preemptive actions to refuse account openings for high-risk individuals.
Bogdan Shablya, Director of the Central Bank's Financial Monitoring and Currency Control Service, confirmed that the goal of this platform is to make illegal financial operations economically unviable by blocking them at entry points. Unlike the KYC systems that heavily rely on passive measures and primarily monitor companies, this platform will actively target individual accounts and focus on real-time detection of abnormal transaction patterns.
