In October 2018, the FATF identified the Bahamas as a jurisdiction having strategic AML/CFT deficiencies for which the Bahamas has developed an action plan with the FATF. The Commission assessed the latest information received in this context from the FATF relating to these deficiencies and other relevant information. The Bahamas has taken steps towards improving its AML/CFT regime and in February 2020, the FATF has made the initial determination that the Bahamas has substantially completed its action plan and warrants an on-site assessment to verify that the implementation of the Bahamas’ AML/CFT reforms has begun and is being sustained, and that the necessary political commitment remains in place to sustain implementation in the future. The FATF has yet to carry out such assessment to confirm its initial determination. Therefore, the Commission does not have in its possession information which would enable it to confirm at this stage that the strategic deficiencies have been effectively addressed. The future assessment will focus on the following areas: (1) developing of a comprehensive electronic case management system for international cooperation; (2) demonstrating risk-based supervision of non-bank financial institutions; (3) ensuring the timely access to adequate, accurate and current basic and beneficial ownership information; (4) increasing the quality of the Financial Intelligence Unit’s products to assist Law Enforcement Authorities in the pursuance of Money Laundering (ML)/Terrorist Financing (TF) investigations, specifically complex ML/TF and stand-alone ML investigations; (5) demonstrating that authorities are investigating and prosecuting all types of money laundering, including complex ML cases, stand-alone money laundering, and cases involving proceeds of foreign offences; (6) demonstrating that confiscation proceedings are initiated and concluded for all types of ML cases; and (7) addressing gaps in the Terrorist Financing and Proliferation Financing Targeted Financial Sanctions’ frameworks and demonstrating implementation. On this basis, the Bahamas should be considered as a country having strategic deficiencies in its AML/CFT regime under Article 9 of Directive (EU) 2015/849.

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
