Developing policies and preventive and controlling strategies against bank crimes as well as combating those crimes, especially money laundering at international and domestic levels are essential. Accordingly, the Financial Action Task Force and even the International Settlements Bank, per these standards, rank banks and their respective styles in countries. Therefore, the present paper aimed to explain monetary and banking policies. We also intended to identify national strategies for banking crimes based on international documents. Methods: This descriptive and analytical study used library documents and resources. Results: Among all banking crimes strategies, repressive strategy is the most prevalent one in monetary and banking policymaking. Criminological studies, however, reflected that a criminal-reactive criminal policy does not help eliminate the roots of bank crimes. Conclusion: Suppressive strategy is associated with the superiority of the penal system and state accountability to banking crimes without changing the reference model. In Iran, it has been an adaptive strategy, i. e., not correlated with the discontinuous strategy of the active criminal policy of international documents aimed at shifting from the dominant model of government to society.
