Money Laundering in the Perspective of Banking Law Case Study of Money Laundering at Bank BJB Semarang in 2024

Abstract

Money laundering is a serious crime that has a significant impact on the economic, social and security aspects of a country. This crime is usually committed in financial institutions such as banking with three stages: placement, layering, integration. This research uses a juridical- normative approach to examine the applicable regulations and identify weaknesses in their implementation. The results show that the crime of money laundering in banking is a serious matter and there must be a reconstruction of banking law and strict supervision. In addition, in the case study at Bank BJB Semarang, it was found that there were weaknesses in banking supervision so that supervision needed to be further improved and strengthened money laundering laws.
