Cayman Islands Financial Services Minister André Ebanks, Attorney General Samuel Bulgin, and other government officials were in Mexico last week, continuing efforts to get the country off the Financial Action Task Force's grey list of jurisdictions for money laundering.
Cayman is still on the 'watch' list, as concerns remain about the lack of successful money laundering investigations or prosecutions.
The delegation met with the Americas Joint Group, a sub-working group of the FATF's International Co-operation Review Group, to update them on the latest developments regarding that remaining area of weakness.
The group will report its findings to FATF ahead of its plenary in June, when a public statement will be released about the status of jurisdictions on its monitoring list and whether Cayman will be on the grey list.
