Elisabeth Bresee, US Assistant Treasury Department Secretary for Enforcement, yesterday announced a new regulation cracking down on 'MSBs' or Money Services Businesses.

Now they will have to register with the Department's Special Financial Crimes Unit. Further regulations are expected in the agency's ongoing war against money laundering.
