Friday, January 19, 2024
Opalesque Industry Update - Following the removal of the Cayman Islands from the Financial Action Task Force's list of jurisdictions under increased monitoring in October 2023, on 7 February 2024 the Cayman Islands will also be removed from the EU list of third-country jurisdictions which have strategic deficiencies in their anti-money laundering / countering financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) regimes (the EU AML List).
