The Webinar on money laundering in the real estate sector will be held on December 14, 2022 from 12:00 to 13:00 (Paris time). Occasionally, participants will have to ask any questions.

The webinar organized by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) will explore how criminals launder the proceeds of crime through the real estate sector and what authorities and the private sector can do to detect and disrupt these financial flows. Indeed, FATF assessments show that this sector and its supervisors often have a poor understanding of the money laundering risks they face and regularly fail to mitigate them.

For this reason, the webinar brings together a panel of experts who will share their views and experiences in combating the laundering of illicit proceeds through real estate transactions. Discussions will focus on several topics. Namely, the process of disrupting money laundering across the real estate sector, from mitigating risk identification to reporting and cooperation between practitioners and law enforcement, the value of public-private partnerships, the monitoring framework and challenges, and the impact on the real estate sector and market.
