Haiti’s Anti-Money Laundering Guidelines Under Scrutiny: FATF Releases Latest Assessment

=====================================================

The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) has released its latest assessment of Haiti’s anti-money laundering (AML) and combating the financing of terrorism (CFT) measures, revealing a mixed bag of compliance and effectiveness.

Compliance with FATF Recommendations

According to the report, Haiti received a rating of “partially compliant” for technical compliance with the FATF Recommendations. This indicates that while some requirements have been implemented, others remain outstanding.

Effectiveness of AML/CFT System

Haiti’s AML/CFT system was rated as having a “moderate level of effectiveness”, meaning that it has achieved some key goals but falls short in other areas. The assessment is based on 11 immediate outcomes that reflect the ultimate objectives of an effective AML/CFT system.

Areas for Improvement

• Strengthening supervisory capacity
• Implementing more effective measures to prevent the misuse of companies and trusts

Commitment to Improving Financial Regulatory Framework

Despite these findings, Haitian authorities have expressed commitment to improving their country’s financial regulatory framework and enhancing international cooperation to combat money laundering and terrorist financing.

Next Steps

The FATF assessment comes as part of a regular review process aimed at ensuring that countries are taking adequate steps to prevent the misuse of their financial systems for illicit activities. The organization will continue to monitor Haiti’s progress in addressing these shortcomings and providing technical assistance where necessary.
