Approximately USD $ 1 billion yearly money laundering arises in Pakistan. In the last researcher

2.1.THE BANKING SECTOR
Banking sectors s one of the important part of the money laundering, illicit money is being deposited in
their bank accounts followed by withdrawal in different modes like transfers, online and cash withdrawal
etc. Despite of using banking channels, money launders have some issue they have some arguments i.e
banks report to regulatory authorities like FIU, FIA or other law and enforcement agencies, after
withdrawal or deposits huge cash. There are many ways of money laundering. Followings are the terms
that familiarize term money laundering.
2.1.1. SMURFING/ STRUCTURINGStructuring or Smurfing is the techniques that usually money launderers are using. Smurfing or

in structured form followed by withdrawal in transfer form into different accounts or wire transfer
through remittances.
2.1.2. SHELL COMPANIESShell companies also playing a very vital role in money laundering. It is being used in both banking and
non banking sectors. In shell companies, there is no physical place of the business. All transactions are
conducting by professionals on the behalf of beneficial owner. Through the Shell banking, we can not
identify the true beneficial owner of the fund. It is taken by highly professionals, lawyers, accountants,
thats why the real beneficial owner is remain hidden. These professional manage secrecy of the
transactions, they helps for placement of funds and in the last stages integration stage by using fund in
other countries.
2.1.3. TELEPHONIC TRANSFERTelephonic transfers are very common techniques for money laundering and main tool for all stages
because this is very quick transactions methods. It is very difficult for law and enforcement agencies to
trace quickly.
2.1.4. MONEY EXCHANGERMoney exchange companies are main source of money laundering, they are dealing in cash, and cash
mode of transactions one of the suspicious mode and way of money laundering. They are dealing in
different currencies. A wide range of currencies they are offered along with small denomination banks
notes to larger ones and replacing techniques like money orders, etc.
2.1.5. REMITTANCESRemittance is very important tool of money laundering. In remittances, there is less regulatory
requirement than institutions and banks, which provide corresponding service. Money launderers are
using this method to launder money from one country to other country.
2.1.6. HUNDIHundi or Hawala system one of the important process of money laundering, in which a group involved in
money laundering from one place to other place. This system of money laundering is mostly associated
with Asia. This systems is called Underground banking and usually use in Asian Countries. This system
reduces remittances through banks and results a country lose foreign currency. If the country has shortage
of foreign currency then they loses their currency values.

Hundi or Hawala system is very common in money laundering; they are using banking channels for
routing the money from one place to other places in the transferring mode.
2.2.MONEY LAUNDERING IN PAKISTAN
Pakistan needs to endorse an anti-money laundering laws and regulations, recently parliament has
approved Anti money laundering bill. In current scenario Pakistan is facing intense pressure from internal
agencies against money laundering. After 9/11 incident, Pakistan on the top of the list, after 9/11 incident
Pakistan is facing severe behavior from all of the world, On the Risk rating Pakistan fall in high risk
country, and this is very big challenge for Pakistan to face and especially for trade purposes. As per
FATF, Pakistans policies towards money laundering are not stronger than other countries.
The basic causes of money laundering in Pakistan is cash base economy, there is no proper
documentation in our country thats why we are facing money laundering instances in Pakistan. Hawaland Hundi system is vey lucrative business in Pakistan and its being used to remit fund fro Pakistan to
other countries and from other countries to Pakistan without any resistance. State Bank of Pakistan has
also took many actions to control money laundering by using banking or financial institution. SBP also
supporting global agencies to establish well anti money laundering infra structured, they are established
an independent unit that is working independently along with SBP with the help of international
Agencies. SBP established six regulations to control the money laundering from banking sector.
2.2.1. METHODS USE IN PAKISTAN FOR MONEY LAUNDERINGThere are two methods of money laundering in Pakistan, money launderers are using both methods formal
or informal.
2.2.1.1.FORMAL METHODS
In formal methods, money lauders are sing banking channels, by open an account by fraudulently in
banks then the are use that account for money laundering purposes, other money laundering methods
including Credit Cards, Travelling cheques etc, but these are not common in use or prevailing of money
laundering in Pakistan, due to magnitude of fund.
2.2.1.2.NON FORMAL METHOD
The non formal methods is being used for money laundering is very old method, under the name of Hundi
or Hawal system. His is very common in Pakistan. This is very simple of un traceable method because
cash is being paid from one point and received by other person in other point, without any documentation.

4.1.1. INTERNAL ARRANGEMENT TO CHECK MONEY LAUNDERINGAll banks /DFIs must need to establish well internal control system to reduce the chance of money
laundering. Following are the key concepts that reduce the probability of money laundering.
4.1.1.1.AUTOMATED SYSTEM OF PRODUCING REPORTS

4.1.1.2.TRAINING
Staff training is very important part of any job. Banks should develop training centre for branch level,
branches must have to train their relationship managers to know about Anti money laundering, if RM
understand AML procedure then they will use their knowledge to prevent Bank for money laundering.
Being a compliance officer, AML training is basic necessity of their day to day work assignment.
As per AML/CFT regulations R-6, all commercial banks should train their compliance officer at optimum
level to understand the phenomenon of money laundering, thats why they instruct every bank to develop
training centre and train every employees regarding Money laundering and how we protect bank from
money laundering.
4.1.1.3.RECORD KEEPING
Record keeping is very crucial part of any organization, especially for the banks, as per SBP AML/CFT
regulation R-6 all banks/DFIs should keep all record up to 10 years in both form hard as well as soft form.
Complete record of inward and outward remittances and other remittances must be store in safe area.
Record keeping also helps banks to trace any customer with his previous track record in the nutshell,
record keeping helps to prevent banks from money laundering.
4.1.1.4.DORMANT ACCOUNTS
Sudden activity in dormant account seems suspicious and unusual activity in the account and compliance
officer must go trough sudden activity in dormant account and report to higher management to trace and
identify and take corrective measures. All dormant accounts must be active in front of Branch managers
ad account holder himself present in the branch and submit an application to active his dormant account.
Sudden activity in dormant accounts also red flag and one way of placing ill-gotten funds into bank. All
compliance officers must give additional attention to transactions that would happen in dormant accounts.
4.1.1.5.REMITTANCES
One of the ways of money laundering is remittance; it is the easiest way of transfer ill-gotten money fromone place to other place. All compliance officers must pay additional attention in remittance; Money
launders provide false information to remit the fund from one place to other place. All bankers must
identify the actual source of fund before remit the fund. Many instances have seen in remittances that
huge amount of fund transferred abroad without knowing the actual source of fund, and few banks were
penalized.

All banks are using advance level of system that protects them from money laundering by using
remittance mode of transfer. OFAC, and European Union and other countries have developed list of black
people who are involved in terrorist activities and money laundering, all banks are using good systems
that screen out that list then release any payment, that decrease the chance of money laundering.
4.1.1.6.CASH TRANSACTIONS
Cash transactions is very common pattern of money laundering, banks have to give extra attention in all
cash transactions and they have to report all cash transactions that above 2.5M single transactions. All
bankers must have to understand the importance of money laundering through cash transactions and give
special attention to cash transactions.
4.2.DIFFERENT IMPACT OF MONEY LAUNDERING
There are many impact of Money laundering, some impacts are:
4.2.1. SOCIAL IMPACT OF MONEY LAUNDERINGMoney laundering creates both impacts social and political. Costs of social and political of money
laundering are extremely large, political involvement prevalence the money laundering by using their
political power. Money launders loaded the criminal money into banks and business spoil the social
environment. Illicit money move in the economy and that create bad impact on the economy. Social
environments very affected by money laundering.
4.2.2. MACRO ECONOMIC IMPACT OF MONEY LAUNDERINGThe large flow of illicit money creates the distortions in macroeconomics factors and giving rising trend
in unemployment and stops the economic activities and become cause of money laundering haven. Large

There are diverse ways that are in practice for money laundering in commercial banks similar to
placement, layering, and integration. The money laundering on one hand creates the social problem like
concentration of wealth in few hands and on the other hand, from commercial banks point of view it
results in the unbalanced increase in deposit of the banks. The phenomenon of money laundering was not
so much famous before the 9/11. The incidence of 9/11 opened the eyes of financial institutions and the
regulatory bodies specially in the USA because before 9/11 there were many shell banks (fugue banks)
which used to transact with huge funds without any source of origin of these funds, which resulted in the
disaster like 9/11.Money laundering exists in Pakistan, and money launders normally using banking
channels and hundi, hawala system to launder money from one place to other place, detail analysis have
done in this research.
To prevent the banks from money laundering, USA and other countries have develop some laws and
ACTs to prevent banks from money laundering. USA is very active member in this field. Financial
Action Task force is doing excellent work in to prevent financial institution from money laundering.
In this study, researcher define the process of money laundering, and how it works and how Pakistani
banking channels is being used for money laundering, researcher also describe the facts and figures of
money laundering and its impact on country, as a social and as a political. Researcher conducted
interviews, fills up questionnaires from different bankers, reviewed prior history and then researched to
conclude this research with recommendations.
5.2.RECOMMENDATION
On the basis of findings, analysis and review interviews and literature reviews, researchers recommended
following few things that would be beneficial to prevent the banking sector from money laundering.
Banks should attempt sensible efforts to focus the customer identification, and must verify and dothe effective measures for checking the bonafides of new customer.
Banks/DFIs must be participation with law implementation orgs. With any obligations forced byprinciples identifying with client privately, banks should collaborate completely with national law
implementation orgs including, where there are sensible reason for suspecting cash washing,
taking suitable measures which are steady with the law.
Banks/DFIs must need to enhance due diligence to manage suspicious and unusual or un-economic transactions. They must need to investigate the suspicious transactions with advance
level of monitoring system.
All banks/DFIs must follow SBP regulation to prevent Banks from money laundering.

All banks must need to develop or establish their own AML/ KYC policy to prevent bank from
money laundering.
They must need to establish proper handling suspicious transactions. They must file suspicious transactions report to FMU. They must develop Compliance department to strengthen the banking system. Pakistan must need to develop the national anti money laundering database and keeping safely
information submitted by financial institutions.
Pakistan must need to implement World wide recommendations ad must establish their policy onthe basis of FATA 40 Recommendations
By implementation of above mentioned recommendations, the relevant authorities should further
reinforce the battle against the cash launderer and demonstrate to them that there is no spot to cover
up.
Finally, Commercial banks are urged to create programs against money laundering that negligibly
would see the advancement of strategies and methods and the contribution of administration all the
while. On going representative, preparing projects and review checks of the framework are likewise
proposed.
