5/26/2023 0 Comments World for two meaning![]() ![]() Sustainable Development Goal target 6.1 calls for universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water. Everyone has the right to sufficient, continuous, safe, acceptable, physically accessible and affordable water for personal and domestic use. In 2010, the UN General Assembly explicitly recognized the human right to water and sanitation. Improved water supply and sanitation, and better management of water resources, can boost countries’ economic growth and can contribute greatly to poverty reduction. Safe and readily available water is important for public health, whether it is used for drinking, domestic use, food production or recreational purposes. In 2020, 74% of the global population (5.8 billion people) used a safely managed drinking-water service – that is, one located on premises, available when needed, and free from contamination.Microbiologically contaminated drinking water can transmit diseases such as diarrhoea, cholera, dysentery, typhoid and polio and is estimated to cause 485 000 diarrhoeal deaths each year.Safe and sufficient water facilitates the practice of hygiene, which is a key measure to prevent not only diarrhoeal diseases, but acute respiratory infections and numerous neglected tropical diseases. ![]() While the most important chemical risks in drinking water arise from arsenic, fluoride or nitrate, emerging contaminants such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and microplastics generate public concern.Microbial contamination of drinking-water as a result of contamination with faeces poses the greatest risk to drinking-water safety. Globally, at least 2 billion people use a drinking water source contaminated with faeces.Over 2 billion people live in water-stressed countries, which is expected to be exacerbated in some regions as result of climate change and population growth. ![]()

5/26/2023 0 Comments Rule 34 rivet![]() ![]() Since its issuance in 2015, the FATF travel rule has been revised on different occasions with the most recent being published in July. To avoid the aforementioned, it also becomes a nation’s duty to mandate VASP providers to prioritise the FATF travel rule. VASP providers who do not comply with the FATF standards are at risk of varying penalties, one of which includes being listed among high-risk watchlists otherwise known as ‘gray list.’ This list can be compared to the likes of ‘black list’ which often puts a subject on the unfavorable end of things. Just like the typical requirement for indigenous financial institutes, the FATF travel guide is significant to VASPs especially while navigating their ways in the crypto space. Why is VASPs’ compliance with the FATF travel rule critical? The rule extensively requires financial institutions (VASPs) to pass on certain customer and transaction information to another financial institution for certain funds transfers.Beneficiary institutions acquire and store the necessary resource information and necessary and correct beneficiary information. ![]() VASPs collect and store the necessary and correct resource information and necessary beneficiary information and send this information to beneficiary institutions if any.As such, the following travel rule or recommendation 16 is applicable VASP providers, according to the FATF, are firms that conduct operations associated with virtual asset exchange, exchange, transfer, protection, or issuance and commitment of virtual assets. This way, controlling the area by any means possible was crucial. The rule was primarily driven by the growing number of virtual assets, and more so, because they were mostly built on a decentralised system. The FATF travel rule guideline itself happened to be one of the several attempts by the regulatory body to mitigate the risk presented by virtual currency payment products and services. In this context, VASP providers include but are not limited to exchanges (both centralised and decentralised), hosted wallets, OTC desks, and banks.Īlso, the information required of VASPs by FATF includes the customer’s name, user ID, account number, National ID number, date, as well as destination addresses of parties involved. Specifically, the rule advises VASP providers to share particular identifying information about senders and receivers of crypto transactions exceeding USD/EUR 1000 on a global scale. Issued in June 2015, the FATF travel rule or recommendation 16 as it was alternatively called, imposes anti-money laundering and counter-financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) responsibilities on virtual assets and virtual asset service providers. The reason for the decline in the crypto crime rate can be attributed to different factors, some of which include the emergence of blockchain analysis protocols and the impact of regulatory bodies like FATF. However, by 2020, the illegal share of all cryptocurrency activity had dropped to 0.34 percent ($10.0 billion in transaction volume). However, there has been a steady decline in the rate of crypto crime in recent times.Īccording to a 2021 study by Chainalysis, 2019 had the largest level of criminal activity in cryptocurrency history, accounting for around 2.1 percent of total transaction volume and $21.4 billion in transfers. Just before we make sense of the FATF travel rule, it is necessary to keep in mind that, in line with the rapid expansion of the cryptocurrency industry, there has also been an alarming rate of alleged crimes involving digital assets. So what’s the FATF travel rule all about? Let’s find out below. The FATF travel rule is one of the most prominent globally adopted guidelines in the financial sector, and it is targeted at virtual asset service providers (VASP). The regulatory agency dubbed ‘the world’s money laundry and terrorist financing watchdog’ became very popular in the crypto space following its proposed and now-enacted “Travel Rule Guideline.” The rapid adoption of cryptocurrency globally has drawn the attention of different regulatory bodies including that of the Financial Action Task Force (FATC). ![]() 5/26/2023 0 Comments Wells county voice![]() ![]() Please check out the website of my Opera Company, Palisades Opera.
