Exit From Greylist Not Bulletproof: FATF Warns Pakistan Against Terror Financing

FATF highlights ongoing risks from terror financing in Pakistan despite greylist removal, citing use of digital payments by groups like Jaish-e-Mohammad, with vigilance urged by global watchdog.

  • In October 2022, Pakistan was removed from the FATF 'greylist', but Elisa de Anda Madrazo, FATF president, warned no country is 'bulletproof' against money launderers or terrorists.
  • India's National Risk Assessment 2022 identifies Pakistan as a high-risk terror-financing source and flags Pakistan's National Development Complex among state-linked entities.
  • Reports show groups such as Jaish-e-Mohammad using digital payment systems to conceal funds, while the FATF 'greylist' flags countries with strategic deficiencies requiring enhanced monitoring.
  • Because Pakistan is not a FATF member, the Asia Pacific Group has led follow-up oversight, while Elisa de Anda Madrazo urged sustained vigilance and enforcement beyond delisting.
  • At the Paris plenary, representatives from over 200 jurisdictions participated in FATF discussions and adopted the first evaluations under a new mutual assessment round.
