With China's accession to the WTO, China's banking industry as soon as possible into the history of financial globalization has become an inevitable trend, but the money can not be optimistic about the status quo, has seriously affected China's financial security and international reputation. Many scholars have been concerned about the domestic anti-money laundering legislative research, but most focus on money-laundering crime to examine criminal legislation, even if the rules of the existence of preventive visits were also stopped in 2006 "Anti-Money Laundering Law" promulgated. Therefore, this article focuses on the banking system to prevent money laundering in the international anti-money-laundering and research experience based on the combination of the actual situation of China's Anti-Money Laundering Banking on China's anti-money laundering legal system, the banking industry made a number of recommendations to improve with a view to anti-money laundering China's banking industry must work to provide help.This paper is divided into four parts.The first part of the concept of money-laundering, the way the new characteristics of hazards and analysis of banking institutions is necessary to channel money-laundering, the banking industry is the core of anti-money-laundering aspects of the conclusions, and analysis of money laundering and anti-money-laundering activities on the basis of the status quo that in our country made great efforts to combat and prevent the use of the banking system for money laundering and the urgency of the need.
