Changes target money laundering

Changes to Jersey's anti-money laundering laws have been outlined by the island's Financial Services Commission.

They include making it an offence to set up an anonymous bank account or to run an account using a fictitious name.

Companies could also be ordered not to do business with countries that don't comply with international anti-money laundering standards.

The changes will come into force on 7 November.
