FinCEN advisory on FATF jurisdiction list

FinCEN has issued FIN-2020-A009, an "Advisory on the Financial Action Task Force-Identified Jurisdictions with Anti-Money Laundering, Combating the Financing of Terrorism, and Proliferation Deficiencies."

  • Iran and North Korea continue to be listed by FATF as "high-risk" jurisdictions.
  • Iceland and Mongolia have been removed from FATF's "Jurisdictions under Increased Monitoring" statement
  • Remaining on the "Increased Monitoring" list are Albania, The Bahamas, Barbados, Botswana, Burma (Myanmar), Cambodia, Ghana, Jamaica, Mauritius, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Panama, Syria, Uganda, Yemen, and Zimbabwe (some countries did not report their actions on its reforms because of the COVID-18 pandemic, and the list may not reflect their current status).

Financial institutions filing SARs with a connection to the advisory should include the key term "October 2020 FATF FIN-2020-A009” in SAR field 2 (Filing Institution Note to FinCEN) and the narrative.
