Perhaps it doesn’t always appear to be the case, but the globe is shrinking.  The speed a pandemic can spread via air travel or that criminal proceeds can be distributed by global banking systems leads to increasing and restrictive regulations.

Who’s on the FATF grey list?

Why does it matter?

If your country is on the special monitoring list, then we suspect you already know the answer to this.  Credit availability and high interest are only part of the restrictions you face.  Repeat visits by IMF and World Bank evaluators are all part of the equation and guaranteed to impact your nation’s financial management for years.

VPH International has a cadre of experienced investigators with first-hand knowledge of Financial Action Task Force (FATF) evaluation procedures.  We know that lifting special monitoring measures is an arduous (and costly) task.  We can help with that and because of our experiences we know that international organisations will help with the implementation of systems based approaches to ruggedize jurisprudence and legislation and to create a hostile landscape of money launderers and other criminal actors.

What can never be underestimated though is the impact of a recovering nation successfully prosecuting corruption offences and recovering assets.  Using these factors to demonstrate a determination to and delivery of change is the fastest and most practical way of boosting FATF evaluations.

This is where VPH International is best placed to assist you because actions speak louder than words.
