Politique de lutte contre le blanchiment de capitaux et le financement du terrorisme
Summary
The Green Climate Fund (GCF) has adopted a policy to protect its resources and reputation from money laundering (ML) and terrorist financing (TF). Aligned with Financial Action Task Force (FATF) recommendations, the policy mandates a risk-based approach to due diligence for all counterparties, including the verification of beneficial owners. It prohibits relationships with entities that fail due diligence, engage in prohibited practices, or are under UN financial sanctions. The Independent Integrity Unit (IIU) is responsible for monitoring implementation, and all GCF personnel must report suspicious activities to the IIU without alerting the parties involved. Records of due diligence and transactions must be kept for at least five years.
Key insights
- The GCF aligns its anti-money laundering (AML) and countering the financing of terrorism (CFT) standards with the international recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).
- The policy implements a risk-based approach (RBA) to identify and assess ML/TF risks, ensuring that mitigation measures are proportional to the identified risks to optimize resource allocation.
- Counterparty Due Diligence (CDD) is required to verify the identity of counterparties and their beneficial owners, taking into account the type of counterparty, the financial instrument, and the country of operation.
- The Independent Integrity Unit (IIU) is tasked with monitoring the policy's implementation, and all covered persons must report suspicious activities to the IIU immediately without 'tipping off' the counterparty.
- The GCF is required to maintain all records related to counterparty due diligence, correspondence, and executed transactions for a minimum period of five years.
