This project aims to assist beneficiary states across South and South East Asia to identify and address legislative and other deficiencies in their regime to combat terrorist financing, while assisting these beneficiaries to overcome implementation challenges related to strengthening legislative and regulatory frameworks relating to countering terrorist financing laws. Project activities include: (1) assisting priority Asia/Pacific Group (APG) members undergoing a review by the Financial Action Task Force’s (FATF) International Cooperation Review Group to engage with the FATF and/or develop and implement high-level national action plans. This is done to address key Anti Money Laundering and Counter Terrorism Financing deficiencies; (2) assisting APG members with pre and post-mutual evaluation preparation, planning, implementation, and follow up; (3) supporting attendance of key officials from priority APG members at the 2016, 2017, and 2018 APG typologies workshops; and (4) conducting follow up visits to provide assistance to APG members on selected FATF recommendations.
