Abstract
The international level of countering the legalization of proceeds from crime is a developed segment of anti-corruption policy on a global scale, in which an intergovernmental body such as the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) plays an essential role. His role in the organization of control over the activities of financial authorities and credit institutions, as well as in the methodological support of the construction of compliance in private sector organizations, is well known. However, in recent years, the FATF’s activities have increasingly focused on the control of persons who are not financial entities. Recently, such a concept as a “gatekeeper” has been introduced into legal circulation.
This work is devoted to a critical analysis of the legal regulation of the activities of international organizations in the field of countering the laundering of criminal assets. The author aims to determine the limits of the admissibility of the implementation of the FATF recommendations in the national legal space.
