This Article is a critical analysis of the lack of cryptocurrency regulations in Chile and offers gains Chile may have by implementing Estonia’s pro-cryptocurrency approach. Additionally, the absence of regulations in Chile is examined through the comparative lens of Chile and Estonia’s global ranking in anti-money laundering. Part A begins with a brief introduction to blockchain and financial technology. Parts B and C will discuss Estonia’s and Chile’s existing crypto attitudes. Part D will include recent histories of anti-money laundering efforts of both Estonia and Chile. Part E will assess other factors that may also be impacting Estonia’s decrease and Chile’s increase in economic crimes — like money laundering. Finally, Part F will discuss whether a “one size fits all” approach works, and, particularly, if Estonia’s success could transfer to a high-risk country like Chile through the adoption of pro-cryptocurrency legislation.

AbstractThis article examines the evolution of the EU anti-money laundering legislative framework (which in recent years has also included measures to counter terrorist finance), by focusing in particular on recent legislation such as the third money laundering Directive and the Regulation on controls of cash entering the EU, both adopted in 2005. The analysis highlights the relationship between these instruments and international initiatives in the field (in particular FATF standards), and addresses the challenges posed to the European Union legislative and constitutional framework when attempting to accommodate global standards.

Regulatory Intervention

Cryptocurrencies are decentralised virtual currencies, using blockchain technology to process peer-to-peer electronic payments. In 2009, the first successful cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, was established. This article discusses concepts of cryptocurrency, its relevance in the financial sector, its associated risks and establishes whether regulatory interference is necessary in order to combat money laundering using cryptocurrency. Currently, cryptocurrencies remain unregulated in South Africa. The article concludes that regulatory intervention is necessary and that cryptocurrencies should be integrated into relevant existing legislation.
