Summary/Abstract: As a result of the analysis of the situation of the Republic of Moldova, based on the vulnerabilities of the private sector but also of the state institutions, 13 principles to be followed were developed for the realization of a balanced and rational system for preventing and combating money laundering and terrorist financing. The established principles take into account the requirements of EU Directive 2015/849, the money laundering risks specific to the environment in the Republic of Moldova, as well as the limited resources of the business environment and those of public authorities. Also, these principles focus on the critical risks of money laundering and elimination of vulnerabilities within state institutions, the risks of abusive applicability and susceptibility to corruption.
