However, there is good news for Jamaica and Türkiye, as they have successfully implemented the required reforms and have been removed from the Grey List. This progress showcases the positive impact of international cooperation and diligent efforts to enhance financial transparency and security. #FATFGreyList #antimoneylaundering #counterterroristfinancing #AML #CTF #financialcompliance, #FATFupdates #Jamaica #Türkiye
