Anti-Money Laundering
FATF, INTERPOL & UNODC urge critical action on Money
Laundering & Terrorist Financing (ML/TF)
In the context of the 34th session of the UN
Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice (CCPCJ), held
on 19 May 2025 in Vienna, the FATF, INTERPOL, and UNODC issued a
joint call for governments to intensify efforts to combat the
significant illicit proceeds stemming from drug and human
trafficking, organised illegal migration networks, fraud, and
Illicit financial schemes.
Key recommendations include:
- Asset recovery: strengthen cross-border cooperation and legal
frameworks to identify, seize, and repatriate assets associated
with criminal and terrorist organisations, thereby undermining the
financial systems that enable their operations.
