The Clinton administration, saying it was stepping up the war on
drug-related money laundering, announced yesterday that it will
require thousands of check-cashing, money-remitting and
currency-exchange businesses to register with the federal government.
..........
The new regulations will "give us for the first time a truly
comprehensive picture of this industry--who owns them and what
services they provide," said James F. Sloan, director of Treasury's
Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.
Failure to register with the government will be a crime punishable by
a fine of $5,000 per day and up to five years in prison.
