Bates Managing Director Brandi Reynolds (CAMS-Audit) is quoted in a new ACAMS Insights article discussing efforts to develop a federal regulatory framework for crypto and virtual assets. The article, published August 12, 2022, looks at proposed legislation in the U.S. Senate and House aimed at “preventing the use of cryptocurrency in illicit finance” and “developing ‘principles-based guidance’ on how anti-money laundering, sanctions and cybersecurity rules apply to cryptocurrency,” among other goals.
