Under the new guidance, the required information for each transfer includes:
(i) originator’s name (i.e., the sending customer);
(ii) originator’s account number where such an account is used to process the transaction (e.g., the VA wallet);
(iii) originator’s physical (geographical) address, or national identity number, or customer identification number (i.e., not a transaction number) that uniquely identifies the originator to the ordering institution, or date and place of birth;
(iv) beneficiary’s name; and
(v) beneficiary account number where such an account is used to process the transaction (e.g., the VA wallet).
Calling the “threat of criminal and terrorist misuse of virtual assets?a “serious and urgent?issue, FATF said in a public statement that it will give countries 12 months to adopt the guidelines, with a review set for June 2020.
