Chainalysis’ blockchain data platform and software & services solutions strengthen Covario’s KYT (Know Your Transaction) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) compliance procedures

Zug and New York — Covario is using Chainalysis, the blockchain data platform, which services over 700 government agencies and crypto and financial businesses, to enhance Covario’s AML compliance functions.

Backed by blockchain data, Chainalysis’ software solutions help examine crypto compliance and forensics in a secure and automated way. Tested and proven by global regulators, these tools have been used to solve some of the world’s most high-profile criminal cases.

Keith Noyes, Covario’s Chief Risk and Compliance Officer, stated: “Chainalysis helps Covario to utilize the transparent power of the blockchain to be able to check on the provenance of every token we transact and to generate alerts for risky transactions and counterparties.”

He added that “For historical reasons, cryptocurrencies are associated with money laundering problems. Global regulators remain concerned about the potential for cryptocurrencies to aid and abet money laundering. Therefore, running an effective anti-money laundering compliance program is crucial to Covario’s business development.”

Chainalysis provides ongoing education and certification courses for Covario’s team members to ensure up to date understanding of potentially illicit transactions. All wallets and transactions in Covario’s ecosystem undergo meticulous KYC/AML monitoring.
