该工作组希望借助推行反洗钱政策,防止利用犯罪收益进一步犯罪,以及避免洗钱活动影响合法经济活动。
为了打击个人滥用金融系统进行毒品洗钱,FATF在1990年拟定了《40条建议》。
该建议为反洗钱工作奠定了基本框架,是为全球而设计的。
内容涉及刑事司法制度和法律执行,金融制度及其规章,以及国际合作事宜。
为了适应新形势下洗钱手段的发展,1996年FATF对该建议进行了首次修订。
2003年6月,FATF在对洗钱方法和技术的年度评估基础上,对《40条建议》做了进一步修订。
此次修订结合《打击恐怖融资8条特别建议》,对原有的《40条建议》进行了重大修订,建立了一个更加广泛,统一和有力的反洗钱和反恐融资的国际框架。
下面将要介绍的就是2003年修订以后与反洗钱直接相关的6条建议。
