Nigeria has officially exited the FATF Grey List after being removed during the FATF plenary in Paris. The Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU) confirmed the removal, emphasizing the country's commitment to global standards in combating money laundering and terrorist financing.
Nigeria was placed on the Grey List in February 2023 due to identified deficiencies in its anti-money laundering and counter-financing of terrorism framework. The removal signifies Nigeria's sustained efforts in enhancing financial transparency and integrity, as highlighted by key officials like Hafsat Abubakar Bakari and Wale Edun.
