| dc.description.abstract | The crime of money laundering has
developed, especially from the way it works which
utilizes public officials to carry out their crimes, one of
which is a Notary. In response to this, Government
Regulation Number 43 of 2015 was amended by
Government Regulation Number 61 of 2021 concerning
PPT PPU Reporting Parties which specifically regulates
who is categorized as a new Reporting Party in order to
prevent and eradicate money laundering. Reporting
Parties are any person who, according to laws and
regulations governing the prevention and eradication of
money laundering crimes, is required to submit a report
to the Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis
Center (hereinafter abbreviated as PPATK). In this
article, there are two legal issues, namely: How is the
legal protection of a notary as a reporter regarding the
crime of money laundering and how the Notary's
Precautionary Principles Form in Preventing Money
Laundering Crimes. The research method used is
normative juridical, with a conceptual, statutory and
case approach. While the results of the discussion for a
notary public, it is vulnerable to being used by
perpetrators of money laundering crimes to hide or
disguise the origin of assets that are the result of
criminal acts by taking cover behind the provisions of
confidentiality of professional relations with Service
Users which are regulated in accordance with statutory
provisions. The reporting obligation by the profession
has been implemented in many countries and has had a
positive impact on the prevention and eradication of
money laundering. In addition, the arrangements for
the Reporting Parties and the implementation of
reporting obligations by the Reporting Parties are
intended to protect them from lawsuits, both civil and
criminal. | en_US |
