The Financial Action Task Force has published a 2017 Supplement to the 2013 Guidance on AML/CFT Measures and Financial Inclusion. The 2013 Guidance sets out how anti-money laundering and counter terrorist financing measures could be designed to achieve financial inclusion without compromising financial crime fighting. The 2017 Supplement is intended to encourage financial inclusion by providing examples of how countries have adapted their customer due diligence measures for this purpose through simplified CDD or alternative forms of identity verification.
