PHNOM PENH (phnom Pemnh Post/ANN): The International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) Article IV Consultation team has recognised Cambodia for its robust actions against money laundering and terrorism financing.

Following the nation’s exit from the “grey list” of the Financial Action Task Force’s (FATF) – an intergovernmental body set up to develop policies to combat international money laundering and terrorism financing – in February, the IMF highlighted the progress made and encouraged further efforts to enhance governance and transparency.
