It is official: Malta removed from FATF grey-list

The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) has officially confirmed that Malta has been taken off the grey-list.

The official decision was announced by FATF President Marcus Pleyer in a press conference today at the end of the June session in Berlin.

“Malta will no longer be subject to the FATF’s increased monitoring process. This comes after the country received an on-site visit. Malta will work with FATF regional partner MONEYVAL, of which it is a member, to continue strengthening its AML/CFT regime,” FATF said.
