The FATF has released the Follow-Up Report to the Mutual Evaluation Report of the Kingdom Denmark, which was adopted in June 2006. In October 2010, the FATF recognised that the Kingdom of Denmark had made significant progress in addressing deficiencies identified in that report and decided that the the Kingdom of Denmark should be removed from the regular follow-up process. The FATF agreed that the Kingdom of Denmark should now report on any further improvements to its Anti-Money Laundering/Combating the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) system on a biennial basis.

In its 2006 mutual evaluation, the Kingdom of Denmark was rated partially compliant (PC) for the following Core Recommendations. As a result, it was placed in the regular follow-up process (1).

• Recommendation 5 (Customer due diligence)
• Recommendation 13 (Reporting of suspicious transactions and compliance)
• Special Recommendation II (Criminalising the financing of terrorism and associated money laundering)

The Follow-Up Report agreed by the FATF in October 2010 and published here, finds that the Kingdom of Denmark has taken sufficient action in remedying the identified deficiencies for the above mentioned Recommendations, and that all the Core and most of the Key Recommendations are at a level essentially equivalent to compliant (C) or largely compliant (LC), and that substantial progress has also been made on the overall set of Recommendations which were rated NC or PC.

The decision by the FATF to remove a country from the regular follow-up process is based on updated procedures agreed in October 2008. These procedures require a country to have taken sufficient and effective action to address the compliance levels of Recommendations 1, 3-5, 10, 13, 23, 26, 35-36, and 40 and Special Recommendations I – V (key and core Recommendations), where those Recommendations were previously rated as partially compliant or non-compliant. “Sufficient and effective action” is defined as a level essentially equivalent to compliant (C) or largely compliant (LC).
