Today we open a three-day regional event in Indonesia 🇮🇩  in collaboration with the Global NPO Coalition on FATF. \nTaking place from July 25th to 27th\, this Regional Consultation brings together together 50 NPO representatives from the APG and Central Asia countries\, including Bangladesh\, Cambodia\, Hong Kong\, India\, Indonesia\, Kazakhstan\, Kyrgyzstan\, Malaysia\, Mongolia\, Nepal\, Pakistan\, Philippines\, Sri Lanka\, and Thailand as well as from Croatia\, Georgia\, the Netherlands\, the Republic of Moldova\, Russia and the UK. Representatives of the APG Secretariat as well as the authorities of the host country – Indonesia – will also be in attendance. \nWe are also happy to announce that the Chairperson of MONEYVAL and representatives from the EU Delegation to Jakarta will also address the audience. \nThe primary objective of this meeting is to discuss the upcoming revision of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) Recommendation 8 Best Practices Paper (BPP) by the FATF. The Rec 8 BPP revision is a crucial step towards aligning international standards with the evolving needs and realities of NPOs. It also provides an opportunity to address any existing challenges and improve the effectiveness of measures designed to combat money laundering and terrorist financing while safeguarding the legitimate activities of NPOs. \nIn this sense\, the EU Global Facility and its partners are working to foster an inclusive and collaborative environment\, where we aim to gather valuable insights and contributions from NPOs of the region\, ensuring that their perspectives and expertise are incorporated into the final proposal to be submitted to the FATF \nIndeed\, following the four previous consultations held for the regions of Latin America/the Caribbean\, Africa\, Europe and MENA\, this collaborative effort will culminate in a final global event scheduled to take place in Bonn in September. There\, the consolidated global position will be discussed and finalised. \nKey Objectives: \n\n🔹 Facilitate dialogue and exchange of experiences among NPOs in the APG region\n🔹 Gather input and feedback to inform the Rec 8 BPP revision process\n🔹 Strengthen the common global position of NPOs\n🔹 Enhance collaboration between NPOs\, regulators\, and policymakers\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

As virtual assets and digital currencies become more prevalent within the Metaverse\, it becomes crucial to understand and address these risks to maintain the integrity of financial systems and combat illicit activities.” \nSome of the ML/TF risks associated with the Metaverse include anonymity and pseudonymity\, Virtual Assets laundering\, cross-border transactions and lack of regulatory frameworks\, among others. \nOver the three-day training\, experts of the EU Global Facility will delve into crucial aspects related to the Metaverse and Virtual Assets (VAs)\, with a primary focus on AML/CFT investigations. Participants will have the opportunity to explore topics such as the identification of illicit activity in VAs and the assessment of the effectiveness of current AML/CFT measures. \nBy the end of the training\, attendees will gain valuable insights into the misuse potential of virtual assets and their associated risks\, regulatory frameworks\, industry standards\, and strategies for detecting suspicious transactions. \nObjectives: \n\n– Comprehend Metaverse\, Virtual Assets\, their misuse potential\, and related money laundering and terrorist financing risks.\n– Understand the principles of AML/CFT investigations as they apply to virtual assets\, including the regulatory framework and industry standards.\n– Identify key indicators of illicit activity in virtual assets and utilise analytical tools for detecting suspicious transactions.\n– Assess the effectiveness of current AML/CFT measures within the context of virtual assets and evaluate the need for additional regulatory actions.\n– Collaboratively devise strategies to enhance AML/CFT investigations and compliance within the virtual asset industry.\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
