Abstract

This report focuses on the observance of standards and codes on the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF) recommendations for antimoney laundering and combating the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) in Greece. It reveals that Greece’s legal requirements in place to combat money laundering and terrorist financing are generally inadequate to meet FATF standards. There are some serious concerns about the effectiveness of the AML/CFT system in place. The preventive system that deals with customer identification is generally insufficient and not in line with international standards.
