Financial Sanctions List in Antigua and Barbuda Under Scrutiny

In a move to combat money laundering and terrorist financing, the government of Antigua and Barbuda has been assessed by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) on its implementation of technical requirements. The report highlights several areas where the country needs improvement.

Key Findings

According to the assessment, Antigua and Barbuda received ratings of “largely compliant” in several key areas, including:

• Assessing risk and applying a risk-based approach
• National cooperation and coordination
• Targeted financial sanctions related to terrorism and terrorist financing

However, the report also identified areas that require further attention, including:

Areas for Improvement

• Non-profit organizations
• Financial institution secrecy laws
• Customer due diligence
• Regulation and supervision of financial institutions

Additionally, Antigua and Barbuda received ratings of “partially compliant” in several other areas, including:

• Confiscation and provisional measures
• Terrorist financing offense
• Wire transfers

The country also needs to improve its transparency and beneficial ownership of legal persons and arrangements.

Regulatory Strengthening

The report highlighted the need for Antigua and Barbuda to strengthen its regulation and supervision of designated non-financial businesses and professions (DNFBPs), as well as its financial intelligence units.

Conclusion

While Antigua and Barbuda has made progress in implementing the technical requirements of the FATF Recommendations, there is still much work to be done to ensure that the country is fully compliant with international standards. The government will need to take concrete steps to address these areas in order to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing.
