Risky Business: State Regulation of Money Transmitters
Published by CLEAR News Spring in 2003.
Author(s): Andrea Lee Negroni.

It is essential for government regulators, whether or not involved in financial regulation, to understand the goals and challenges inherent in the regulation of money transmission.
