Política de Lucha Contra el Blanqueo de Capitales y la Financiación del Terrorismo
Summary
The GCF's Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing Policy implements a risk-based approach to protect the fund's resources and reputation. It mandates counterparty due diligence, prohibits relationships with non-cooperative or sanctioned entities, and assigns oversight to the Independent Integrity Unit. The policy aligns with Financial Action Task Force (FATF) recommendations and requires the retention of due diligence records for at least five years.
Key insights
- The GCF adopts a continuous risk-based approach (RBA) to identify and evaluate money laundering (ML) and terrorist financing (TF) risks, ensuring that mitigation measures are proportionate to the identified risks to optimize resource allocation.
- The fund implements Counterparty Due Diligence (CDD) to verify the identity of counterparties and their beneficial owners, with the level of diligence determined by the risk associated with the counterparty type, relationship, financial instrument, and country of operation.
- The Independent Integrity Unit (IIU) is the body responsible for supervising the implementation of the policy, and all GCF personnel must report suspicious activities to the IIU immediately without notifying the counterparty (tipping off).
- The GCF requires that all records obtained through counterparty due diligence, documentation of relationships, executed transactions, and correspondence be maintained for a minimum of five years.
- The policy is designed to align with United Nations conventions and the international standards set by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), and it will be reviewed periodically to reflect evolving international best practices.
