In January, GAFILAT published Peru’s First Enhanced Follow Up Report relating to the implementation of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing standards. The report analysed the progress made by Peru in addressing the technical compliance deficiencies identified in its 2019 Mutual Evaluation Report.
According to the follow-up Evaluation, Peru was deemed Compliant for 16 and Largely Compliant for 19 of the FATF 40 Recommendations.. It remains Substantially Effective for 4 with regard to the 11 areas of Effectiveness of its AML/CFT Regime.
In 2025, the country requested technical assistance from the EU Global Facility on AML/CFT, notably with regards to its Virtual Assets framework.
In December 2025, a delegation from the EU Global Facility therefore conducted a scoping mission to the new partner country to discuss their needs and agree on the technical assistance work plan.
