As a leading provider of technical assistance to Lao authorities in the fields of Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT), and with the continued support of the Government of Luxembourg, ILSTA recently organised a debriefing session for the diplomatic corps.
The session focused on the outcomes of ILSTA’s mission to support Lao authorities in preparing the Post-Observation Period Report (POPR) and on follow-up actions stemming from the 2022 Mutual Evaluation by the Asia/Pacific Group on Money Laundering (APG) and the following processes under FATF.
Discussions underscored the critical importance of sustained technical assistance and knowledge-sharing in achieving compliance with international standards and strengthening the overall effectiveness of Lao PDR’s AML/CFT framework.
ILSTA extends its sincere gratitude to all distinguished participants for their valuable contributions, constructive feedback, and ongoing commitment to supporting Lao PDR’s AML/CFT efforts.
