The countries of the Eurasian region are implementing a regional risk assessment project

In order to implement provisions of the EAG Strategy for 2019-2023, EAG member states launched a project on regional money laundering and terrorism financing risks assessment in the Eurasian region.

Project group, which includes 23 representatives of the EAG member states, develops methodology of regional risk assessment, which is planned to be submitted for approval at the upcoming EAG Plenary meeting.

The aim of the project is to identify and assess the main risks of money laundering and terrorist financing at the regional level among the EAG member states, develop measures to minimize them, as well as determine the needs for technical assistance and conduct subsequent monitoring.

The road map for project implementation was approved at the 31st EAG Plenary meeting in Ashgabat (Turkmenistan).

It is planned that the regional risk assessment will be conducted in two rounds. The 1st round of regional risk assessment and approval of the final report is planned for 2020-2021.
