Anti-money laundering and counter terrorist financing recognition strengthens India's compliance standing and access to global financial markets.
FATF adopted India's Mutual Evaluation Report, placing India in the regular follow-up category and recognising measures mitigating ML/TF risks from corruption, fraud and organised crime.
