Adžić takes part in MONEYVAL High-Level Meeting

Minister of the Interior Filip Adžić took part in the MONEYVAL High-Level Meeting.

Ministers responsible for anti-money laundering policies from the member States and territories of the Council of Europe’s MONEYVAL Committee have committed to improve the effectiveness of their regimes to prevent and combat money laundering, the financing of terrorism and weapons of mass destruction proliferation.

In a Declaration adopted at the end of a high-level meeting in Warsaw organised by the Ministry of Finance of Poland and MONEYVAL, the ministers underscore that illicit finance poses a major threat to economic development and security, making the need for effective anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing measures more apparent than ever.

The ministers acknowledge that there is room to enhance the level of implementation of measures to counter money laundering and terrorist financing in their countries and commit to strengthening their compliance and effectiveness in the next five years.
