Update date: 22 Sep 2025, 23:13
The United Nations, in particular the Security Council, establishes mandatory international measures for States in the AML/CFT/CPF sphere. These include United Nations Security Council Resolutions 1267 (1999), 1373 (2001), 1988 (2011), and others, which set out comprehensive measures to counter terrorist financing and proliferation financing. These instruments are binding on all UN Member States and are integrated into national legal systems.
