There are 37 member jurisdictions in the FATF and two regional organisations that represent major financial centers worldwide. The United Kingdom is a step ahead in complying with the KYC and AML regulations among other FATF members. It has the most robust KYC and AML regulations and is named as “Global leader in promoting corporate transparency” by FATF.
