BVI FSC industry circular 26 of 2024: FATF public statements - June 2024

28 Aug 2024
|

The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) released public statements highlighting jurisdictions with deficiencies in their anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-financing of terrorism (CFT) regimes. In response, the BVI Financial Services Commission (FSC) issued Industry Circular 26 of 2024, advising compliance with these updates.

Key points from the circular:

  • Awareness and action: Entities must note the FATF's concerns about certain jurisdictions and assess the related risks of money laundering, terrorist financing, and proliferation financing.
  • Due diligence: Enhanced due diligence should be applied when dealing with clients or transactions linked to these jurisdictions.
  • Enhanced measures: In high-risk cases, entities should implement additional countermeasures to safeguard the international financial system.
  • Continuous monitoring: Ongoing monitoring of transactions involving these jurisdictions is essential to adjust due diligence measures as needed.
