On September 24, ANZ CEO Shayne Elliott spoke at the Standing Economic Committee on Thursday, stating that the bank will still maintain its policy of not providing banking services to cryptocurrency exchanges.
He said that this is not a permanent policy, but it is still difficult to safely integrate cryptocurrency into his banking system, and expressed his willingness to cooperate with regulators to better understand the risks. He said: It is difficult for us to clarify how to provide services in this field, especially in terms of cryptocurrency exchanges, including how to simultaneously comply with our obligations in anti-money laundering, sanctions, counter-terrorism and financing. ANZ Bank reported that investment scams increased by about 53% year-on-year, and a large part of them involved cryptocurrencies.
