Papouasie-Nouvelle-Guinée

GAFI : surveillance renforcée (liste grise)

Since February 2026, when Papua New Guinea made a high-level political commitment to work with the FATF and APG to strengthen the effectiveness of its AML/CFT regime, Papua New Guinea has taken steps to improve its AML/CFT regime and understanding of ML/TF risks following completion of its National Risk Assessment and Legal Persons Risk Assessment. Papua New Guinea should continue to work on implementing its FATF action plan to address its strategic deficiencies, including:

1. endorsing the National AML/CFT/CPF Strategic Plan
2. proactively seeking outbound international cooperation to identify and trace criminal property abroad
3. improving risk-based supervision of banks, MVTS/FX dealers and higher risk DNFBPs
4. demonstrating an increase in ML investigations and prosecutions
5. demonstrating an increase in freezing/seizing and confiscation of criminal proceeds, instrumentalities and property of equivalent value
6. conducting training for competent authorities to enhance their understanding of TFS-PF implementation
7. addressing technical compliance deficiencies, including with respect to the ML offence, TF offence, TFS-PF, politically exposed persons and suspicious transaction reporting
