This report by the Inter Governmental Action Group against Money Laundering in West Africa (GIABA)  provides a summary of the AML/CFT measures in place in Burkina Faso as at the date of the on-site visit (23 July to 7 August 2018). It analyses the level of compliance with the FATF 40 Recommendations and the level of effectiveness of Burkina Faso’s AML/CFT system, and provides recommendations on how the system could be strengthened. 

This Mutual Evaluation Report was adopted by the GIABA at its May 2019 Plenary meeting and the findings of the assessment have also been reviewed and endorsed by the FATF.
