Cayman Islands Satisfies FATF Action Plan

Therefore, subject only to the completion of an on-site visit by the FATF later this year, which forms part of the FATF’s standard process for removing a jurisdiction from the Monitoring List, the Cayman Islands will be delisted. As the EU has previously confirmed that it does not require the Cayman Islands to take additional steps beyond those set out in the FATF’s action plan to facilitate removal from the EU AML List, it is widely expected that this will automatically follow.
