Anti-money laundering: risk sectors

At the end of August 2017, the Financial Information Processing Unit published its 2016 activity report on the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing. One of the sections of this report highlights the weaknesses in certain areas of activity. On the basis of various criteria, the national analysis of the risks (threats and vulnerabilities) of money laundering identified six sectors as particularly vulnerable.

These are the construction sector, the art and antiques sector, the precious stones and metals sector, HORECA, the retail sector and the used cars sector.
