Summary/Abstract: When international organisations are established, they usually aim to solve problems resulting from a combination of political and economic issues. Such organisations are usually created in the context of cooperation initiated by one or more major powers. The idea of creating an international organisation to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing dates back to the 1980s, when money laundering spread worldwide through international organised crime networks. The Financial Action Task Force (FATF), the organisation set up to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing, has seen continued growth and integration, impacting the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing in regions and nations. This paper will present the international standards developed and the organisations monitoring the implementation of these standards, and the FATF will focus on Moneyval.
