AML/CFT Commitment of RockBridge

At Rockbridge, we recognize that financial crimes threaten the integrity of global financial systems and undermine trust in crypto-asset services.

To combat money laundering (AML) and terrorist financing (CFT), we have implemented a risk-based AML/CFT Framework compliant with:

• EU Anti-Money Laundering Directives (AMLD6).
• Bulgarian Anti-Money Laundering Act.
• FATF Recommendations for Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs).

Our Framework Includes

• Governance: Clear roles, including a Money Laundering Reporting Officer (MLRO).
• Risk Assessments: Regular evaluation of enterprise-wide and client-specific risks.
• Customer Due Diligence (CDD):
  • Identity verification (KYC) for all clients.
  • Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) for high-risk clients (e.g., PEPs, cross-border transactions).
• Sanctions Screening: Real-time checks against EU/UN/US sanctions lists.
• Transaction Monitoring: Detection of suspicious activity (e.g., unusual crypto-to-fiat patterns).
• Reporting: Mandatory submission of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) to Bulgaria’s Financial Intelligence Directorate (FID).
• Training: Annual AML/CFT training for all employees.

Zero-Tolerance Stance

We do not engage with individuals or entities involved in:

• Illegal activities (e.g., fraud, ransomware, darknet markets).
• Sanctioned jurisdictions or prohibited industries (e.g., unlicensed gambling).
• Attempts to obscure crypto transaction origins (e.g., mixing services).

Continuous Improvement

Our Framework is regularly updated to address emerging risks, including:

• Crypto-Specific Threats: Anonymity-enhancing technologies, cross-border liquidity pools.
• Regulatory Changes: MiCA compliance readiness, evolving EU/Bulgarian guidelines.
