法国当局将调查扩大到binance，调查所谓的洗钱，税收欺诈和其他罪行

这项调查是由处理经济和金融犯罪的巴黎检察官办公室纳尔科（Junalco）进行的，涉及在法国以及更广泛的欧盟（EU）发生的罪行。

French authorities have expanded their investigation into Binance, covering a wider range of alleged offenses at the crypto exchange from 2019 to 2024, including money laundering, tax fraud and other crimes, according to a Tuesday report by Reuters.

法国当局扩大了对义务的调查，涵盖了2019年至2024年在加密货币交易所进行的更广泛的罪行，包括洗钱，税收欺诈和其他犯罪。

Binance has denied the allegations, telling CoinDesk in an emailed statement that it will “vigorously fight any charges made against it.”

Binance否认了这些指控，并在一封电子邮件声明中告诉Coindesk，它将“大力对付任何指控”。

The investigation, which was opened by JUNALCO, the division of the Paris public prosecutor’s office that handles economic and financial crime, spans alleged offenses that took place in France as well as the broader European Union (EU). French authorities first began investigating Binance in June 2023 for “aggravated money laundering” and the “illegal” provision of crypto trading services before it received regulatory approval from the AMF, the French financial regulator, in 2022.

这项调查是由负责处理经济和金融犯罪的巴黎检察官办公室纳尔科（Junalco）进行的，涉及在法国以及更广泛的欧盟（EU）发生的罪行。法国当局于2023年6月首次开始调查Binance，以“加重洗钱”和“非法”提供加密货币交易服务，然后再获得2022年法国金融监管机构AMF的监管机构批准。

“Binance is deeply disappointed to learn that [JUNALCO] has taken the decision to refer this matter, which is several years old, to the French judiciary for further investigation,” the spokesperson added.

该发言人补充说：“毕业座对得知[junalco]的决定将这一问题（已有几年历史）转交给法国司法机构以进行进一步调查感到非常失望。”

At the time news broke of the initial investigation in 2023, then-CEO Changpeng “CZ” Zhao called the reports “FUD” on social media and reaffirmed Binance’s commitment to its presence in France, which Zhao called the exchange’s “flagship center in Europe.”

当时，新闻打破了2023年的初步调查时，当时的首席执行官Changpeng“ CZ” Zhao称这些报告在社交媒体上称为“ FUD”，并重申了Binance对法国的存在的承诺，Zhao称其为“欧洲旗舰中心”。透明

Last April, Zhao was sentenced to four months in prison in the U.S. for failing to implement an adequate know-your-customer (KYC) and anti-money laundering (AML) regime at Binance, thus violating the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA). Binance also pleaded guilty to violating the BSA and sanctions laws, and agreed to pay $4.3 billion in fines and penalties to settle the charges.

去年四月，赵因未能实施足够的知识客户（KYC）和二anance的反洗钱（AML）而被判处四个月监禁，从而违反了《银行保密法》（BSA）。 Binance还承认违反BSA和制裁法律，并同意支付43亿美元的罚款和罚款以解决这些指控。

As part of Zhao’s plea deal with U.S. prosecutors, he agreed to step down as CEO of Binance. The exchange has since named Richard Teng, a former regulator, as CEO. Since Teng’s takeover of the exchange, Binance said it has stepped up its compliance efforts, boosting headcount and increasing its spending by nearly 40% year-over-year.

作为赵与美国检察官的认罪协议的一部分，他同意辞去Binance首席执行官的辞职。此后，该交易所将前监管机构理查德·滕（Richard Teng）命名为首席执行官。自从Teng收购交易所以来，Binance表示，它已经加强了其合规性工作，提高了员工人数并将其支出增加近40％同比。
