Hitachi Launches AML Monitoring Service for Crypto Assets and Stablecoins
- The service offers three functions: "post-transaction monitoring" to continuously track risk changes after a transaction, "real-time online evaluation" to assess counterparty addresses before a transaction, and "token monitoring" to track circulation risk after issuance (e.g., for stablecoins).
- Information shared between participating businesses is limited to risk signals like wallet addresses, transaction hashes, and detection reasons; personal attribute information is explicitly excluded from sharing.
- The platform builds on two prior proof-of-concept trials — the first starting February 2025, and a second from March to May 2026 with 17 companies, conducted as a supported project under the Financial Services Agency's "FinTech Proof-of-Concept Hub"; Hitachi frames its risk assessments as reference material, not definitive findings of illicit activity, leaving final decisions to the using businesses.
