FATF-GAFI has published the new version of the manual to evaluate anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing measures. This new document is the result of a proccess which aimed to enhance the previous manual of 2018.
Consequently, to reflect Mexico’s progress, the FATF has now re-rated the country on the following Recommendations:
8 – Non-profit organisations, from partially compliant to largely compliant
10 – Customer due diligence, from partially compliant to largely compliant
12 – Politically exposed persons, from partially compliant to compliant
16 – Wire transfers, from partially compliant to compliant
17 – Reliance on third parties, from partially compliant to compliant
The report also looks at whether Mexico’s measures meet the requirements of FATF Recommendations 2, 7, 15, 18 and 21, which changed since their mutual evaluation. The FATF agreed to upgrade the rating of Recommendation 15 (New technologies), to largely compliant.
Today, Mexico is compliant on 8 of the 40 Recommendations and largely compliant on 22 of them. It remains partially compliant on 9 Recommendations, and non-compliant on 1 Recommendation.
