Earlier, India had become Observer at FATF in the year 2006. Since then, India has been working towards full-fledged Membership of FATF.

 

FATF membership is very important for India in its quest to become a major player in the International finance. It will help India to build the capacity to fight terrorism and trace terrorist money and to successfully investigate and prosecute money laundering and terrorist financing offences. India will benefit in securing a more transparent and stable financial system by ensuring that financial institutions are not vulnerable to infiltration or abuse by organized crime groups. The FATF process will also help us in co-ordination of AML/CFT efforts at the international level.
