In assessing whether or not a country sufficiently applies the FATF anti-money laundering and combating terrorism financing standards, a Licensed Person must: 1. Assess the standards of prevention of money laundering and terrorism financing. The Licensed Person can rely on the information and data made available on the country concerned by relevant authorities. The higher the risk, the greater the due diligence measures that must be applied when undertaking business with a client from the country concerned. 2. Pay particular attention to assessments of compliance of such country with the FATF recommendations that have been undertaken by the FATF, FATF-style regional bodies, or International Institutions such as the International Monetary Fund or the World Bank. 3. Maintain ongoing vigilance concerning money laundering and terrorism financing and take into account information that is available to the Licensed Person about the level of anti-money laundering and combating terrorism financing standards in the country concerned where any of its clients operate.
