Abstract

We develop our understanding of the regulatory cost burden on banks due to the Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorism Financing Act 2001 (AMLATFA), by surveying 82 compliance officers in Malaysia. The study assumes importance given the dual financial system (conventional and Islamic) enshrined in the Malaysian Central Bank Act 2009.
