India placed in the regular follow-up, category: FATF

Jul 01, 2024

India fights ML 1India has achieved an outstanding outcome in the Mutual Evaluation conducted during 2023-24 by Financial Action Task Force (FATF). The Mutual Evaluation Report of India, which was adopted in the FATF plenary held in Singapore between June 26th and June 28th, 2024, places India in the ‘regular follow-up’ category, a distinction shared by only four other G20 countries. This marks a significant milestone in the nation’s efforts to combat money laundering (ML) and terrorist financing (TF).

Among other things, FATF has recognised the efforts made by India on,

1: Mitigating the risks arising from ML/TF, including the laundering of proceeds from corruption, fraud, and organised crime.

2: Effective measures implemented by India to transition from a cash-based to a digital economy to reduce ML/TF risks.

3: Implementation of the JAM (Jan Dhan, Aadhaar, Mobile) Trinity, along with stringent regulations on cash transactions, has led to a significant increase in financial inclusion and digital transactions; these measures have made transactions more traceable, thereby mitigating ML/TF risks and enhancing financial inclusion.

India’s performance on the FATF Mutual Evaluation holds significant advantages for country’s growing economy, as it demonstrates the overall stability and integrity of the financial system. Good ratings will lead to better access to global financial markets and institutions and increase investor confidence. It will also help in the global expansion of the Unified Payments Interface (UPI), India’s fast payment system.

This recognition from the FATF is a testament to the rigorous and effective measures implemented by India over the last 10 years to safeguard its financial system from ML/TF threats. It underscores the country’s commitment to international standards and its proactive stance in the global fight against financial crimes.

This sets a benchmark for countries in our region to effectively implement international standards on terrorist financing. India’s excellent rating will enhance the capacity of our country to lead the global effort on countering cross border terror financing and money laundering.

It is good for our business & exports that the distinction, regular follow-up category is being shared by only four other G20 countries!
