Compliance Nodes
Regulatory enforcement nodes that programmatically apply jurisdictional rules within the network.
Definition
Compliance Nodes are specialized infrastructure components that enforce jurisdictional regulations programmatically within the FORUS network. Central banks and regulators use Compliance Nodes to maintain visibility and control over digital financial operations, ensuring adherence to monetary policy and financial stability mandates. They operate within the UDPN framework to enforce KYC, AML, and Travel Rule requirements without creating friction for end users. Compliance Nodes ensure that each sovereign jurisdiction's rules are respected, even in cross-border transactions.
The multi-rail interoperability layer connecting sovereign nodes, compliance frameworks, and cross-border settlement.
Country-specific infrastructure nodes that preserve national economic sovereignty and data custody.
Anti-money laundering checks built into the network at the protocol level, not bolted on after the fact.
FATF requirement for sharing originator/beneficiary information in cross-border transfers — enforced natively.
Progressive identity verification — basic access with minimal friction, higher limits as trust is established.
