Official Sources We Cover:
Samoa remains in APG enhanced follow-up, with 17 of 40 FATF Recommendations still partially compliant, and the EU maintains its AML high-risk listing due to opacity in the IBC sector and offshore controlling interest risks. Remittances exceeding 30% of GDP and limited SIFA inspection coverage, at just 16.9% of active international companies, further elevate compliance demands. The KYB consolidates MCIL and SIFA data and unifies AML screening to address all regulatory gaps.
