The Colombian government has issued new regulations that force exchanges and individuals to report cryptocurrency transactions to the UIAF, the anti-money laundering watchdog in Colombia. The transactions must be reported via an online reporting system, and exchanges will be required to issue periodic reports of suspicious transactions made by users.
Resolution 314 establishes that cryptocurrency transactions over $150, or cryptocurrency transactions made with multiple tokens whose value goes over $450, will have to be reported to the UIAF, the anti-money laundering watchdog in Colombia.
This new regulation, which will take effect on April 1st, seeks to bring about greater control over what is happening with cryptocurrency assets in the country and stop possible money laundering and terrorism financing activities that could be leveraging these assets to go unnoticed.
