Anti-money laundering (AML) software refers to digital solutions designed to detect, prevent, and report suspicious financial activities that may be linked to money laundering or terrorist financing. These systems automate compliance, transaction monitoring, customer due diligence, and regulatory reporting for financial institutions. As global financial crimes and regulations intensify, AML software is critical for protecting institutions from hefty fines, reputational risk, and regulatory penalties. The need for robust AML technology has surged with increasing online transactions, digital banking, and evolving criminal tactics.
According to BIS Research, global anti-money laundering market was valued at $3.50 billion in 2024 and expected to reach $14.75 billion by 2034 at a CAGR of 15.29%.
