ESAAMLG admitted as FATF Associate Member

The Eastern and Southern Africa Anti-Money Laundering Group (ESAAMLG) was admitted as an associate member of the FATF at its plenary meeting, which was held in Amsterdam from 23 to 25 June 2010.  The meeting also celebrated the 20th anniversary of the FATF Recommendations to fight money laundering. Associate membership recognises the efforts of ESAAMLG in the implementation of the FATF Standards in the Eastern and Southern African region and gives ESAAMLG, together with other FATF Style Regional bodies, a greater decision-making role within the FATF.
