FATF High-Risk Jurisdictions Subject to a Call for Action - February 2024

Jurisdictions under Increased Monitoring

Jurisdictions under increased monitoring are actively working with the FATF to address the strategic deficiencies in their regimes to counter money laundering, terrorist financing, and proliferation financing. When the FATF places a jurisdiction under increased monitoring, it indicates that the country has committed to taking prompt action to address any identified strategic weaknesses within predetermined deadlines. Kenya and Namibia have been added to the list of jurisdictions subject to increased monitoring.

Jurisdictions no Longer under Increased Monitoring

Barbados, Gibraltar, Uganda and the United Arab Emirates are no longer under the list of jurisdictions under increased monitoring. They have made significant progress in addressing the strategic AML/CFT deficiencies previously identified during their mutual evaluations. These jurisdictions had committed to implement an Action Plan to resolve swiftly the identified strategic deficiencies within agreed timeframes. These countries will no longer be subject to the FATF’s increased monitoring process.

Reporting institutions should remain aware of jurisdictions with elevated risks of money laundering, terrorism financing and proliferating financing. This information should be used as a guide for ML/TF risk assessments, compliance programs and to support decisions to report suspicious transactions to Labuan FSA.
