Topic Anti-money laundering High Risk Countries and sanction lists

FATF list of high-risk countries

At its plenary session, the FATF regulary adopts an updated statement („FATF Public Statement“) and publishes an updated information report. A corresponding circular from BaFin is regularly published on BaFin's homepage following the plenary session. I would also like to draw your attention to the sanctions in capital and payment transactions published on the homepage of the Deutsche Bundesbank, which is responsible for the implementation of financial sanctions regarding capital movements and payments in Germany.


The delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1675 of 14 July 2016 and several amendments must also be observed.
