Money laundering and terrorist financing in the securities sector

FATF has just published a study about money laundering and terrorist financing in the securities sector. 

40 jurisdictions submitted a response to the questionnaire that is annexed (pages 80-86).

The objectives of the FATF Securities Typology Questionnaire were to collect information about: (i) the range of products classified as “securities” in various jurisdictions; (ii) how jurisdictions supervise compliance with anti-money laundering/combating terrorist financing (“AML/CTF”) requirements for these products; (iii) potential areas of AML/CTF vulnerabilities in the securities industry; (iv) suspicious transaction reports (STRs) in the securities industry; and (v) enforcement actions in the securities industry.

Unfortunately the response for each jurisdiction is not circulated, which does not contribute to the transparency to assess the regulation in the jurisdictions.

 

I wish I had the answer for every juristiction.
