Keywords:

Cross-border financial services are growing in complexity and volume, driven by globalization and digital transformation. However, this growth is accompanied by rising regulatory challenges stemming from jurisdictional differences, anti-money laundering (AML) requirements, data localization mandates, and evolving tax regimes. This paper explores the regulatory issues confronting cross-border transactions and proposes strategic compliance frameworks based on harmonization, technology adoption, and cooperative governance. It combines literature insights, data visualization, and forward-looking perspectives.
