Abstract

Article covers the theoretical problem of money laundering and terrorist financing, as well as concisely presents selected statistical methods that allow the detection of unusual transactions, which may potentially pose a risk to use the bank for money laundering or terrorist financing. This topic has been chosen because global financial institutions pay more and more attention to the risk of AML (Anti-Money-Laundering), that is the risks associated with the use of financial institutions in the process of money laundering and fraud. Banks are obliged to monitor transactions through various acts in Asia, the United States (FACTA Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act oraz US Patriot Act 2001) and soon the four European directives (4MLD).
