A decision to remove Turkey from the “grey list” may be made at the end of June. Such a step could help Turkey stimulate the economy.
The FATF team has already been to Turkey on an assessment visit. Measures taken to combat money laundering and prevent terrorism were reviewed. However, a final decision has not yet been made, as some FATF members are against it.
Bloomberg reports that the Turkish government cooperated with the United States to freeze terrorist assets. In addition, Turkey has proposed a bill that should regulate cryptocurrencies to implement the latest FATF recommendation.
