KYC / AML Policies

IQFX Group is committed to the higheststandards of compliance against money 

laundering (AML) and anti-terrorist financing (CTF).

 The objective of the Companies Policy against Money Laundering

and Terrorism Financing is to actively prevent the risks of these matters. To
help the government combat the financing of terrorism and money laundering
activities, the law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and
record information that identifies each person who opens an account. We have an
obligation to report suspicious client activity relevant to money laundering.

Money Laundering: The process of converting
funds received from illegal activities (such as fraud, corruption, terrorism,
etc.) into other funds or investments that appear legitimate to hide or distort
the actual source of funds.

The money laundering process can be divided
into three sequential stages:

• Placement. At this stage, the funds are
turned into financial instruments, such as checks, bank accounts, and money
transfers, or they can be used to buy high-value goods that can be resold. They
can also be physically deposited in banks and non-bank institutions (eg
exchange houses). To avoid suspicion on the part of the company, the bleach can
also make several deposits instead of depositing the entire sum at once, this
form of placement is called smurf.

• Layers. The funds are transferred or moved
to other accounts and other financial instruments. It is done to disguise the
origin and interrupt the indication of the entity that carried out the multiple
financial transactions. Moving funds and changing their form makes it difficult
to track the money that is being laundered.

•Integration. The funds are re-circulated as
legitimate to purchase goods and services.

IQFX adheres to the
principles of Anti-Money Laundering and actively prevents any action that
targets or facilitates the legalization process of illegally obtained funds.
The AML policy means preventing the use of the company’s services by criminals,
with the objective of money laundering, terrorist financing or other criminal
activity.

may be considered illegal or, in the opinion of the staff, related to money
laundering.
