Robust anti-money laundering controls and counter-terrorist financing measures are critical to safeguarding business integrity and supporting sustainable growth. Following the publication of Singapore’s latest Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and Asia/Pacific Group on Money Laundering (APG Secretariat) Mutual Evaluation Report in May 2026, we were pleased to host a seminar on the report’s key findings and what they mean for businesses navigating an increasingly complex regulatory environment. While the report reaffirms Singapore's strong and coordinated approach to combating financial crime and recognises its robust governance structures, it also highlights areas where regulators, enforcement agencies and regulated businesses are expected to strengthen controls, oversight and risk management practices. During the session, Partners from our White Collar & Investigations Practice, Co-Head Bik Wei Lee, Deputy Head May Ling Lee, and Cheryl Chong discussed the current regulatory landscape, key findings from the report, emerging enforcement and supervisory priorities, and the practical implications for financial institutions, corporates, intermediaries, and gatekeepers operating in Singapore. Thank you to everyone who joined the seminar and contributed valuable perspectives on the report. We hope the session provided useful insights and look forward to supporting our clients in addressing any compliance and risk management needs.   For more information on our White Collar & Investigations Practice, please click here: https://lnkd.in/giFw5ZpG   #allenandgledhill #singapore #antimoneylaundering #AML #compliance #financialcrime #riskmanagement #regulatory #developments
