Abstract
Moneylaundering is something that has been a quite popular subject in the media in2018. Furthermore anti-money laundering initiatives are something most of usare met with every time we try to withdraw or insert larger amounts of moneyinto the bank. This thesis is based on a study of the Danish anti-moneylaundering laws and the focus is to discuss whether or not the current laws andprocedures are the best solutions and if there is a way to improve them.

In thisthesis we examine the Britta Nielsen case, the Danske Bank case and three courtsentences, in order to form the basis for the examples used to analyse measuresto prevent money laundering, and to see if the laws are working as intended andhow to improve upon the area of anti-money laundering. To examine these problems, the legalmethology is included.

From theanalysis of the Britta Nielsen case, the Danske Bank case and three courtsentences, we can conclude that if the procedures are introduced and usedaccording to the regulations, then the anti-money laundering law has the intendedeffect.

The thesisends with a discussion about how to improve upon the existing anti-moneylaundering laws and initiatives.
