On May 23, 2007 in Moscow within the framework of the Council of Europe project “Anti money laundering and countering of terrorism financing in the Russian Federation (MOLI-RU-2) was held a working seminar “Key issues on functioning of the national AML/CFT system in the Russian Federation”. In his opening speech the Head of the Federal Financial Monitoring Service, Mr. V.A.Zubkov, summarised the process of implementation of the Council of Europe previous projects and pointed out that the carried out work highly favoured the formation/establishment of the Russian AML/CFT system, which now fully meets the international standards. Thanks to the application of the international experience the national AML/CFT system became stable and got opportunity for self-development. Its main elements/parts began to function by themselves providing, based on the adjusted mechanism of cooperation, for support and information exchange with the partners, which has a positive impact on the results of the activities.

The Head of Rosfinmonitoring thanked the European Union, the Council of Europe, the management of the Delegation of the European Commission in the Russian Federation and the members of the project group “MOLI-RU”.

In the speeches of the Head of the Division of Technical Assistance of the Department on crime issues of the Council of Europe, Mr. Alexander Seger, the leader of the project group “MOLI-RU-2”, Mr. Saimon Goddard, and other participants of the seminar a new project “Anti money laundering and counter terrorism financing in the Russian Federation”, designed for 3 and a half years, was thoroughly described, as well as the work plan, schedule of activities and its major units. The project is aimed at further improvement of the Russian AML/CFT system, the assistance in training of the Russian experts in the established field in Rosfinmonitoring, ministries, agencies, credit and finance institutions and other enterprises both in the central district and regions.

The “MOLI-RU-2” project implementation becomes extremely important in view of the coming fall FATF mission.
