FATF Publication on Global ML/TF Risk - June 2025
High-Risk Jurisdictions Subject to a Call for Action
FATF identifies countries or jurisdictions with serious strategic deficiencies to counter money laundering, terrorist financing and proliferation financing. The call for action for Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Iran and Myanmar remains in effect.
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. Bolivia and the Virgin Islands (UK) have been added to the list of jurisdictions subject to increased monitoring.
Jurisdictions no Longer under Increased Monitoring
Croatia, Mali and United Republic of Tanzania are no longer under the list of jurisdictions under increased monitoring as they have strengthened the effectiveness of its AML/CFT regime to meet the commitments in its action plan regarding the strategic deficiencies that the FATF identified.
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/PF risk assessments, compliance programs and to support decisions to report suspicious transaction.
