- terrorist financing;
- sanctions evasion;
- fraud and financial crime;
- proliferation financing;
- the use of stolen or unlawfully obtained assets;

To achieve this, the Company implements a risk-based compliance framework designed to identify, assess, and mitigate financial crime risks associated with the use of the Platform.
This framework may include, without limitation:
