The 2015 Money Laundering and Financial Crimes Country Database supplements the 2014 International Narcotics Control Strategy Report, Money Laundering and Financial Crimes, and highlights the most significant steps reporting countries and jurisdictions have taken to improve their anti-money laundering/counter-terrorist financing (AML/CFT) regimes. It provides a snapshot of the AML/CFT legal infrastructure of each country or jurisdiction and its capacity to share information and cooperate in international investigations. For each country where they have been completed, the write-up also provides a link to the most recent mutual evaluation performed by or on behalf of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) or the FATF-style regional body to which the country or jurisdiction belongs. When applicable, relevant country reports also provide links to the Department of State’s “Country Reports on Terrorism” so the reader can learn more about issues specific to terrorism and terrorism financing. Providing these links will allow those interested readers to find detailed information on the country’s AML/CFT capacity and the effectiveness of its programs.
