The FATF’s Fourth Round Mutual Evaluation Report on Japan published in August last year showed significantly severe results, and financial institutions are now required to take more advanced measures for anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing.

Under such circumstances, Kinzai Institute published, in January this year, a book titled “Theory and Practice of Anti-Money Laundering/Counter-Terrorism Financing” written by authors who were involved in planning and preparing guidelines, formulating monitoring plans, and addressing the FATF’s fourth round mutual evaluation at the Financial Services Agency.
