The conference focuses on the caspian region as a vital element of the future global society and economy.<\/p>\n<p>She was speaking at the session, &#8220;Anti-Money Laundering and Counter Terrorist Financing (AMLCTF) System in Modern FinTech Industry&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As technologies are still evolving, prescriptive laws will keep becoming obsolete as technologies change, and banning technologies like cryptocurrencies will only push the market for them to develop outside India,&#8221; the corporate lawyer said.<\/p>\n<p>A matter related to cryptocurrencies is pending in the Supreme Court. A batch of pleas had challenge a Reserve Bank of India circular prohibiting banks and financial institutions from providing services in relation to cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n<p>Cryptocurrencies are digital currencies, in which encryption techniques are used to regulate the generation of the currency units and verify the transfer of funds, operating independently of a central bank.<\/p>\n<p>Jain further said, &#8220;Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing regulations are undoubtedly very important for a country like India where the parallel cash economy and terrorism financing &#8212; both of which are a major challenge to not only national security, but also for economic growth and development.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In that sense they help protect the rule of law and democracy. They are also important for international security&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting the implications for regulation, Jain said, regulations need to be balanced and principle-based rather than rule-based.<\/p>\n<p>Jain said the authorities seriously consider three issues &#8212; efficacy of fintech companies to provide solutions for financial inclusion, myriad of laws and safeguards against abuse of such laws by governments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is a need to ease regulation for the fintech sector in India for promoting financial inclusion, a lawyer has said while observing that ban on technologies like cryptocurrencies will push them to develop outside the country.
