Gray List Countries
The FATF periodically updates its lists and issues public statements regarding jurisdictions with strategic deficiencies in their anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorist financing (CTF) regimes.
The FATF's website provides comprehensive and up-to-date information on its lists and related documents.
The FATF has two main types of lists:
- FATF High-Risk and Other Monitored Jurisdictions (known as the "FATF Blacklist"):
- This list includes jurisdictions that the FATF identifies as having strategic deficiencies in their AML/CFT regimes. These jurisdictions are called upon to address these deficiencies.
- Jurisdictions under Increased Monitoring (known as the "FATF Graylist")::
- The FATF also identifies jurisdictions with strategic deficiencies but has committed to an action plan to address these issues. These jurisdictions are subject to increased monitoring.
It's crucial to access the most recent information directly from the official FATF sources, as the status of countries on these lists can change based on their efforts to strengthen their AML/CFT frameworks.
