Host Tom Keatinge sits down with CFS Associate Fellow Stephen Reimer and international lawyer Ishita Chakrabati to discuss how authoritarian regimes are abusing the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) standards.

Drawing on insights from a two-year RUSI study, this episode analyses how the FATF standards, which aim to tackle money laundering and terrorist financing, are being exploited by authoritarian regimes to silence dissent. With the FATF gearing up for its upcoming plenary in Paris, the findings in our recent report emphasise the urgent need for the FATF to address these abuses and for the international community to take action to ensure the standards are used as originally intended.
