Comment: I doubt it is notable, but let's give it a chance. I decline, as sources are missing (maybe will be added by the author). Old-AgedKid (talk) 08:50, 23 May 2025 (UTC)
The Basel AML Index is an independent tool that ranks countries based on how vulnerable they are to money laundering and other financial crimes. It uses data to assess the level of risk in each country.[1][2]
It gives each country or jurisdiction a risk score based on information from 17 publicly available sources, including the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), Transparency International, and the Global Initiative against Transnational Organized Crime. These scores reflect how exposed a country is to money laundering, based on five key areas that are known to increase risk:
- Quality of AML/CFT/CPF Framework – Evaluates the strength and effectiveness of anti-money laundering, counter-terrorism financing, and counter-proliferation financing measures.
- Corruption and Fraud Risks – Assesses the prevalence and severity of corruption and fraudulent practices.
- Financial Transparency and Standards – Considers the transparency of financial systems and compliance with international financial reporting standards.
- Public Transparency and Accountability – Measures the availability and accessibility of public information and accountability mechanisms.
- Legal and Political Risks – Examines the stability and integrity of legal and political institutions and frameworks.[3]
The Basel AML Index is intended to support policymakers, financial institutions, and researchers by offering a clear, comparative measure of countries' exposure to money laundering threats and their capacity to mitigate these risks.The Basel AML Index is created and managed by the Basel Institute on Governance, specifically through its International Centre for Asset Recovery (ICAR).[4]
