Jurisdictions under enhanced monitoring are working closely with the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) to tackle significant weaknesses in their frameworks for preventing money laundering, terrorist financing, and proliferation financing. Being placed on increased monitoring by the FATF means the country has committed to addressing these weaknesses within a set timeline and is subject to heightened scrutiny. This list is frequently referred to as the grey list.

Countries had their progress reviewed by the FATF since October 2024: Bulgaria; Burkina Faso; Cameroon; Croatia; Democratic Republic of Congo; Kenya; Mali; Mozambique; Namibia; Nigeria; Philippines; South Africa; South Sudan; Tanzania; Venezuela; and Vietnam. For these countries, updated statements are provided below.

Algeria, Angola, Côte d’Ivoire, Haiti, Lebanon, Monaco, Syria and Yemen chose to defer reporting; therefore, their status as of October 2024 holds but may not reflect the most recent status of the jurisdictions’ AML/CFT regimes.

The Philippines is no longer subject to increased monitoring.

Following review, the FATF now also identifies Lao PDR and Nepal.
