The team also held important bilateral meetings with representatives of ESAAMLG Member Countries to discuss ongoing or forthcoming collaboration. \nWe were pleased to see the support provided by the EU Global Facility -both on a bilateral basis to partner states and through the organisation of various regional events in co-operation with the ESAAMLG Secretariat- commended by the participants. They highlighted the positive impact those technical assistance activities have had on their jurisdictions across the Eastern and Southern African regions. This successful collaboration was also been reflected in the documents adopted by the plenary. \n👏🏽 👏🏽 We take this occasion to warmly congratulate the ESAAMLG members for the adoption of the Toolkit on the risk assessment of legal persons and arrangements that was drafted jointly with experts from the EU Global Facility. \nThis toolkit which was designed to assist countries with the assessment of the risks of misuse of LP/LA for ML/TF purposes within their jurisdictions\, is structured as a practical\, step by step methodology that can be easily tailored to countries risk context. \n“This toolkit will be complemented by several upcoming activities\, including an IT tool that will ease the calculation of the various ratings as well as a training curriculum for the implementation of the methodology by jurisdictions\,” explained Alexandre Taymans during the meetings. \n“We hope that this toolkit will help countries from the region and beyond to prepare for the implementation of the recently review of Financial Action Task Force (FATF) Recommendations 24 and 25\, and the upcoming 3rd round of evaluation that is expected to start in 2024 within the ESAAMLG region\,” he added.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” centered_text=”true” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” gradient_type=”default”][vc_gallery type=”flexslider_style” images=”6766\,6767\,6768\,6769\,6770\,6771\,6772\,6773\,6774\,6775\,6776\,6777\,6778″ onclick=”link_no”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

By adhering to the standards set forth by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF)\, jurisdictions can ensure the robustness of their systems and exhibit their commitment to combating money laundering and terrorist financing. The training will address the critical role of AML/CFT statistics in the context of FATF mutual evaluations. The establishment of an adequate statistics system was required to Ecuador in the FATF Mutual Evaluar-ion. \nIn his welcoming remarks\, EU Ambassador to Ecuador Charles-Michel Geurts\, noted: “I welcome this important activity through the EU Global Facility on anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT). Anti-money laundering efforts are crucial to disrupt the criminal chain attacking the criminals that try to clean the profit from their illegal activities. Fur-thermore\, we´re honoured to support Ecuador´s implementation of GAFILAT´s recommendations” \nFor his part\, UAFE Director General Roberto Andrade\, highlighted the importance of this event that allows to strengthen the construction of an AML/CFT statistical system in the country. “Having a solid statistical system is essential for the joint work of the various national entities in the prevention\, detection and eradication of crimes related to money laundering and terrorist financing. The Financial and Economic Analysis Unit is grateful for the support provided to Ecuador”. \nThis event\, aimed at thirty representatives of the UAFE\, the Attorney General’s Office\, the National Police\, the Judiciary Council\, the National Court of Justice\, the Attorney General’s Office\, the Comptroller General’s Office and the Technical Secretariat for Public Sector Real Estate Management (INMOBILIAR)\, follows a series of four online modules on statistics\, FATF Immediate Results 7 and 8\, police statistics\, justice statistics and statistics on seizures and confiscations.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default”
