From November 25 to 29 of this year, the 41st plenary meeting of the Eurasian Group (EAG) on Combating Money Laundering and the Financing of Terrorism was held in Indore, India.
The plenary session, among other issues, discussed the next Progress Report of the Republic of Tajikistan with a request to review two recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), namely Recommendation 8 (Non-profit Organizations) and Recommendation 38 (Mutual Legal Assistance: Deactivation and Confiscation).
During the review of the Progress Report of the Republic of Tajikistan, the EAG member states and observers, taking into account the country's significant progress in implementing the aforementioned FATF recommendations, supported the country's upgrade in their ranking.
It is worth noting that in the technical compliance section, out of 40 FATF recommendations, the Republic of Tajikistan has been given a positive, significant, and fully compliant rating for 36 recommendations.
Since the second round of country assessments (2018), six Progress Reports of the Republic of Tajikistan have been submitted to the EAG by the Financial Monitoring Department under the National Bank of Tajikistan for final decisions.
