Anti-money laundering in West Africa

Data - Anti-money laundering in West Africa

Transparency International and its partners implemented multi-stakeholder surveys at national level with the aim of identifying priority areas among the existing international anti-money laundering standards. Questionnaires were widely distributed in seven West African countries to stakeholders from public and private sectors, media - business and financial journalists - and civil society. The aggregated results identified five priority standards per country whose effective implementation is key to the fight against money laundering at national level. Transparency International therefore developed a tracker with the aim of monitoring the implementation of these standards.
