Madagascar conducted a mutual evaluation process in 2017 in collaboration with the World Bank and the ESAAMLG Secretariat to determine the level of technical compliance and effectiveness of the AML/CFT regime. The implementation of the recommendations resulting from this assessment aims to strengthen the national AML/CFT system. The evaluation report was adopted by the Council of Ministers in 2022.
