¶2. Begin Text:
Jordan is not a regional or offshore financial center and is not
considered a major venue for international criminal activity. Jordan
does have a well developed financial sector with significant banking
relationships in the Middle-East. Jordan's long and remote desert
borders and nexus to Iraq, Syria, and the West Bank make it
susceptible to the smuggling of bulk cash, fuel, narcotics,
cigarettes, and counterfeit goods and contraband, although there is
insufficient information available from the Government of Jordan
(GOJ) to quantify all of these crimes.
Jordan boasts a thriving "import-export" community of brokers,
traders, and entrepreneurs that regionally are involved with value
transfer via trade and customs fraud. Illicit narcotics,
psychotropic substances, and chemical precursors are not known to be
major components of criminality in Jordan. There are anecdotal
indications of use of Jordan for money laundering of illicit funds
derived from narcotics and other criminal activity in the U.S. and
possibly Europe via bulk cash smuggling for criminal elements
involving Jordanians in those areas. However, it is thought that the
major sources of illicit funds in Jordan are most likely to be
related to commercial fraud, customs fraud, tax fraud and
intellectual property rights (IPR) violations due to Jordan's
dependence on imports and its limited natural resources and
manufacturing base. A wide array of pirated or counterfeit goods is
for sale on the streets of Jordan. One phenomenon that surfaced
during 2008 and continued through 2009 was the use of gold in lieu
of cash for movement of liquid assets. The scheme involves persons
crossing into Jordan at land and seaports, making an admission of
trying to enter multi-kilo quantities of gold to inspecting customs
authorities, paying a fine and then re-exporting the gold at the
entry point thus creating a declaration document to lend legitimacy
to the movement of the high-value precious metal. The activity noted
in 2009 related to smuggling of gold bars into Jordan followed by
deposit into a "gold account" in a Jordanian bank with subsequent
transfer to other countries like Switzerland ostensibly for the
jewelry trade.
Inquiries and assessments conducted during 2009 reveal that Jordan
continues to be vulnerable to trade-based money laundering, bulk
cash smuggling, and alternative remittance systems. Data on the
prevalence of these activities was not available for two reasons:
recognition of these methodologies in Jordan is relatively new; and
it is a common practice in Jordan for individuals and businesses of
all types to first contact the General Intelligence Directorate if
suspicions of certain crimes surface. Offenses that the populace
perceives as crimes relating to national security fall into that
category. Money laundering and terrorist financing are categorized
in this way. For example, when money services businesses had
suspicions about persons using their service, their practice has
been to report it to the General Intelligence Directorate and not
submit a suspicious activity report to the AMLU. Details of these
cases are rarely published or revealed.
In 2008, there was an increase in securities-related financial
crimes due to the discovery of a number of major Ponzi schemes in
which thousands of investors lost investments. By year's end there
were over 50,000 complaints filed relating to these schemes. By
mid-2009 426,000 complaints had been filed by 115,000 victims.
Prosecutors identified 334 companies and 865 individuals involved in
the schemes and arrested 110 individuals in this approximately
JD300,000 ($423,000) fraud. Approximately JD155,000 ($218,550) was
recovered. However, since the criminal activity behind the scheme
was fraud, none of the defendants could be charged with money
laundering since the penalty exposure for fraud in Jordan is not
more than three years of incarceration. Thus, none of the offenses
are predicate offenses for money laundering.
Although the GOJ has revealed no indicators of the use of hawala or
other alternative remittance systems, Jordan's sizeable foreign
worker population and Jordanian enclaves in the U.S., Europe, and
Arabian Gulf countries are thought to use this form of cash transfer
methodology to move legal and illicit funds both out of and into
Jordan.
In August 2001, the Central Bank of Jordan (CBJ), which regulates
Jordan's 24 banks as well as its financial institutions, including
money services businesses, issued anti-money laundering regulations
designed to meet some of the FATF 40 Recommendations on Money
Laundering. Subsequently, money laundering has been considered an
"unlawful activity" subject to criminal prosecution. Jordan's
banking laws prohibit registration of offshore banks or shell
companies. In 2002, money laundering was criminalized related to
insurance operations.
On July 17, 2007, Jordan enacted Law No. 46 for the Year 2007-the
Anti Money Laundering Law (AML) that criminalizes money laundering.
The AML Law does not cover financing of terrorism, but it
criminalizes money laundering and stipulates as predicate offenses
to that crime all felony crimes or any Qime stated in international
agreements to which Jordan is a party whether such crimes are
committed inside or outside the Kingdom, provided that the act
committed is subject to criminal penalty in the country in which it
occurs. Felony crimes are those for which a penalty of three years
or more of incarceration is attached. With this approach, several of
the 20 crimes recommended by the FATF for inclusion in AML
legislation do not meet the penalty level for major crimes and
therefore are excluded as predicate offenses for money laundering
under Jordan's current AML Law. The most noteworthy of these are:
financing of terrorism, smuggling, extortion, intellectual property
rights violations, sexual exploitation of children, trafficking in
persons, trafficking in stolen property, and environmental crimes.
The Banking Law of 2000 (as amended in 2003) allows judges to waive
bank secrecy provisions in any number of criminal cases, including
suspected money laundering and terrorist financing. The AML Law
provides immunity against confidentiality sanctions for obligated
entities that report suspicious transactions based on the AML Law.
The effectiveness of the AML Law remains untested as there have been
no prosecutions for money laundering based on either the CBJ
regulations or the AML Law.
The AML law created the National Committee on Anti-Money Laundering
(NCAML) as well as the Anti-Money Laundering Unit (AMLU) as Jordan's
financial intelligence unit. The NCAML is chaired by the Governor of
the Central Bank of Jordan and has as members: a Deputy Governor of
the Central Bank named by the CBJ Governor to serve as deputy
chairman of the committee, the Secretary General of the Ministry of
Justice, the Secretary General of the Ministry of the Interior, the
Secretary General of the Ministry of Finance, the Secretary General
of the Ministry of Social Development (which overseas charitable
organizations), the Director of the Insurance Commission, the
Controller General of Companies, a Commissioner of the Securities
Commission, and the head of the Anti-Money Laundering Unit. The
NCAML is responsible for: formulating general AML policy,
supervising the implementation of tasks of the AMLU, facilitating
and coordinating exchange of information related to money
laundering, participating in international fora, proposing necessary
regulations for implementation of the AML Law, coordinating and
assigning competent parties to generate statistical reports related
to the AML program of the GOJ, and approving and adopting a budget
for the AMLU.
The Ministries of Justice, Interior, Finance, and Social
Development, as well as the Insurance Commission, Controller General
of Companies, and Jordan Securities Commission all have a part in
regulating various other nonfinancial institutions through issued
regulations and instructions. The AMLU is obligated to work with
these entities to ensure that comprehensive anti-money
laundering/countering terrorism financing (AML/CTF) approach is
undertaken in keeping with international standards and best
practices. Of the regulatory entities of the GOJ, the Central Bank
of Jordan, the Jordan Securities Commission, and the Insurance
Commission of Jordan are best staffed and trained to conduct
compliance investigations. These entities have issued implementing
instructions to the regulated entities under their purview
concerning AML/CTF requirements, which have the force of law. The
extent of the use of the formal financial system for money
laundering or terrorist financing is difficult to measure due to the
lack of reporting data available that clearly identifies these
offenses. Since the AML Law is still relatively new, some agencies
of these cabinet level entities lack coordination in the overall
AML/CTF effort in Jordan.
The CBJ has a well developed bank supervision department whose
procedures, until the recent past, focused almost exclusively on
safety and soundness. However, the CBJ did instruct financial
institutions to be particularly careful when handling foreign
currency transactions, especially if the amounts involved are large
or if the source of funds is in question. The AML Law requires
obligated entities to: undertake due diligence in identifying
customers; refrain from dealing with anonymous persons or shell
banks; report any suspicious transaction to the AMLU; and comply
with instructions issued by competent regulatory parties to
implement provisions of the law. The CBJ drafted an AML/CTF
dedicated bank examination manual in 2008 and adopted it for use in
early 2009. The manual was also adopted for use by CBJ officials
charged with inspecting money services businesses (MSB). Financial
institutions are required under the AML Law to report all suspicious
transactions, whether the transaction was completed or not, via
suspicious transaction reports (STRs) sent to the AMLU. There is no
threshold amount below which STRs are not required. Entities
required to report suspicious transactions include: banks, foreign
exchange companies, money transfer companies, stock brokerages,
insurance companies, credit companies, and any company whose
articles of association state that its activities include debt
collection and payment services, leasing services, investment and
financial asset management companies, real estate trading and
development entities, and companies trading in precious metals and
stones. Lawyers and accountants are not considered to be obligated
entities under the law. There is no reporting threshold which
requires financial institutions to report large currency
transactions in the absence of suspicious activity.
All obligated entities are required to conduct due diligence to
identify customers; their activities, legal status, and
beneficiaries; and follow-up on transactions that are conducted
through an ongoing relationship. Business dealings with anonymous
persons, persons using fictitious names or shell banks are
prohibited. Obligated entities are required to comply with
instructions issued by competent regulatory authorities as listed in
the law. Disclosure to the customer or the customer's beneficiary of
STRs and/or verifications or investigations by competent authorities
is prohibited. They are also required to respond to any inquiry from
the AMLU regarding STRs or requests for assistance from other
competent judicial, regulatory, administrative, or security
authorities needing information to perform their responsibilities.
GOJ officials report that financial institutions have been filing
suspicious transaction reports and cooperate with prosecutors'
requests for information related to narcotics trafficking and
terrorism cases. Most reporting is done by banking institutions
which have well-developed AML compliance programs. During 2009, only
a few STRs came from all the other types of obligated entities.
There were no arrests or convictions for money laundering or
terrorist financing in Jordan in 2009. The standard for forwarding
STRs is a potential problem in the existing law and will require
significant outreach resources to educate obligated entities. The
banking, securities, and insurance sectors are the best regulated
obligated entities and those that have been best educated regarding
recognizing indicators of money laundering and terrorist financing,
but there is still much to be done with the other obligated sectors.
The money services business (MSB) sector is the riskiest obligated
sector and lacks sufficient regulatory oversight and verification of
compliance with reporting suspicious transactions of the AML Law.
Real estate businesses and precious metals and stones dealers are
also under-regulated and are generally unknowledgeable of their
responsibilities to report suspicious transactions.
Charitable associations, although not specified as obligated
entities, occupy another troublesome sector, which requires better
regulatory supervision and oversight. There are over 1,000 nonprofit
organizations registered in Jordan, the majority of which are
charitable organizations. Oversight responsibility for these rests
with the Ministry of Social Development, which is understaffed and
incapable of verifying the financial activities of all of the
organizations. All Jordanian civil society and charitable
organizations must now receive prior approval for use of funds from
foreign sources. Organizations must submit the approval request to
a registrar's office under the Ministry of Social Development but
final approval must come from the Jordanian Cabinet. If the entity
does not receive notification within thirty days of submitting the
request, the organization can proceed with the funding. These
changes became effective on September 17, 2009, after a multi-year
effort to amend legislation governing civil society. The
registrar's office is the primary regulatory body for civil society
organizations and is comprised of representatives from eight
different government bodies as well as four non-governmental
representatives approved by the Prime Minister. The Minister of
Social Development or her designate heads the registrar. All
non-profit companies must also register with the registrar before
December 2010. Previously non-governmental organizations had
several registration options, including under the Ministries of
Social Development, Industry and Trade, Culture, Justice, and
Interior. The degree to which due-diligence is conducted to screen
for potential money laundering or terrorist financing activity by
applicants is unknown. Even with the current regulatory scheme,
provisions to safeguard against abuse for money laundering andQ
terrorist financing are unproven in practice.
The AMLU was formed immediately upon passage and enactment of the
AML Law. The financial intelligence unit is designated by law as an
independent entity within the organizational structure of the
Central Bank of Jordan. It is also physically located in and was
operationally funded for 2009 by the CBJ. The AMLU also uses the CBJ
server and database for all information technology needs. The AMLU
was staffed with the same personnel that made up the CBJ's
Suspicious Transaction Follow-Up Unit, in existence for several
years, and is composed of a director, an outreach officer, one
attorney, and one analyst. Three additional analysts were added to
the AMLU staff in 2009. A comprehensive FIU development plan was
informally adopted for the AMLU prior to the implementation of the
AML Law. Until mid-2009 follow-through on this plan was stymied due
to administrative hurdles until mid-2009 when by-laws governing AMLU
administration were approved by GOJ Cabinet. A new AMLU chief was
appointed by the Governor of the CBJ in his capacity as Chairman of
the NCAML in August 2009. Office space in a building not owned by
the CBJ was acquired in November 2009 with plans to occupy the new
facility shortly after January 1, 2010. These moves should help to
reduce questions concerning FIU independence and autonomy. Although
the AMLU has made overtures to sponsoring countries stating its
desire to become a member of the Egmont Group of Financial
Intelligence Units, it is unlikely that it can gain membership until
2011 at the earliest.
The AMLU is organized on a general administrative FIU model and is
responsible for receiving STRs from the obligated entities
designated in the AML Law, analyzing them, requesting additional
information related to the reported activity and forwarding the
information to the prosecutor general for further action if there is
sufficient cause to believe the transaction is related to money
laundering or other financial crime activity. The AMLU does not have
criminal investigative and/or direct regulatory responsibility, but
it is authorized to require any information needed from obligated
entities stipulated in the AML Law considered necessary for the
performance of its duties if the needed information is related to
information already received by the AMLU. Involvement of the AMLU in
assisting criminal investigations is dependent on the will of public
prosecutors to use it. It is authorized to request and coordinate
with judicial parties, regulatory and supervisory authorities, and
security (law enforcement) authorities. Suspicious transactions
identified as potentially related to terrorist financing are outside
of the AMLU's purview.
At the end of 2009, the AMLU continued to work toward establishment
of formal ties through memoranda of understanding with competent GOJ
authorities possessing the necessary databases and records pertinent
to pursuing financial intelligence analysis and money laundering
investigations. The AMLU received approximately 170 STRs in 2009.
There was no report of any STRs being forwarded to prosecutors for
further action. No prosecutions for money laundering are known to
have occurred in Jordan since the enactment of the 2007 AML law. Due
to lack of knowledge of the AML law, uncertainty about the role of
the AMLU with its limited personnel and functional capability, few
prosecutors have considered using the AMLU to assist in criminal
prosecutions or to charge financial crime violators with money
laundering.
One significant challenge facing the GOJ is determining how law
enforcement entities are tasked to conduct financial investigations
relating to money laundering and terrorist financing. Law
enforcement agencies and public prosecutors continue to deliberate
the question of whether the AML law or the Prevention of Terrorism
Act of 2006 provides sufficient basis for charging money laundering
or financing of terrorism. There is no specific GOJ agency
designated as the lead entity for investigating financial crimes.
Although the AMLU is required by law to forward findings developed
from STRs to the public prosecutors of the Ministry of Justice,
prosecutors of the State Security court also investigate and
prosecute financial crimes, particularly those that deal with
national security. In Jordan, a civil law country, prosecutors lead
all criminal investigations. Investigative field work needed by
prosecutors for criminal investigations is shared between several
GOJ law enforcement agencies dependent on the predicate offense
generating money laundering activity: the Public Security Department
(PSD-national police service), the General Intelligence Directorate
(GID-both a criminal investigative agency and intelligence service;
investigation of all terrorist activity falls to the GID), and the
Directorate of Military Security (DMS) of the Jordan Armed Forces.
Jordan Customs also conducts criminal investigations and has its own
prosecutors, but penalties for customs violations fall below the
level of a major crime (penalty in excess of three years of
incarceration). Nearly all customs violations including commercial
fraud are decided as administrative cases and seldom accrue criminal
penalties including incarceration. The concept of forwarding large
monetary value customs fraud cases to public prosecutors for
criminal investigation and prosecution has not taken root in
Jordan's legal system. This anomaly leaves the possibility of
forfeiture of proceeds of customs related criminal activity to the
Kingdom totally unexploited. Notwithstanding the lack of emphasis
on pursuing money laundering or terrorism financing investigations,
the GOJ has welcomed training to learn how to do so.
There are six public free trade zones (FTZ) in Jordan: the Zarqa
Free Zone, the Sahab Free Zone, the Queen Alia International Airport
Free Zone, the Al-Karak Free Zone, the Al-Karama Free Zone, and the
Aqaba Special Economic Zone (ASEZ). With the exception of Aqaba,
these FTZs list their activities merely as trade. There are 36
private free trade zones, a number of which are related to the
aviation industry with five more being established. Some of these
FTZs list their activities as industrial, agricultural,
pharmaceutical, training of human capital, and multi-purpose. With
the exception of ASEZ, all free trade zones are regulated by the
Jordan Free Zones Corporation in the Ministry of Finance and are
guided by the Law of Free Zones Corporation No. 32 for 1984 (and
amendments). State security entities regularly circulate information
and names of suspected individuals and activities to the free trade
zone areas and this information is always monitored and instructions
are followed to ensure no abuse of the Free Trade Status of those
areas. Vehicles and individuals entering the FTZ are searched by
both PSD and Customs upon entry and exist. There is a full set of
procedures that are implemented. Regulations state that companies
and individuals using the zones must be identified and registered
with the Corporation. The Aqaba Special Economic Zone is controlled
by a ministerial level authority. The Aqaba Special Economic Zone
Authority (ASEZA) encompasses all of the port city of Aqaba and is
bounded by Saudi Arabia on the south, Israel on the west and is a
short ferry ride across the Gulf of Aqaba (Red Sea) to Egypt. ASEZA
has its own customs authority, which operates separately from Jordan
Customs and processes all merchandise and commodities destined for
businesses in the zone. It also processes all passengers entering
the zone. Jordan Customs processes all shipments of goods in transit
to areas outside the zone. Awareness of the methodologies and threat
of trade-based money laundering and bulk cash smuggling was improved
through training in 2009 for both ASEZA Customs and Jordan Customs.
Both entities have taken steps to improve inspection and control
procedures to detect these crimes. Thus far there have been no
criminal cases involving the FTZs of Jordan that indicate they were
used for trade-based money laundering, bulk cash smuggling, or
financing of terrorism.
The 2007 AML law requires reporting of inbound cross-border movement
of money if the value exceeds a threshold amount set by the NCAML.
In 2008, the threshold amount was set by the NCAML at 10,000
Jordanian Dinars but was raised in 2009 to 15,000 JD (approximately
$21,150). The threshold amount was officially established and
transmitted to border control authorities for enforcement. The law
also provides for the creation of cross-border currency and monetary
instruments declaration forms. A declaration form was adopted and
printed in 2009. At year's end, Jordan Customs, in consultation
with the AMLU, was working on a trial implementation plan to assess
the enforcement of reporting requirements required by the AML law
through use of the declaration at three ports of entry - Queen Alia
International Airport, Aqaba Ferry Terminal, and Jabar land
crossing(Syria). The declaration requirement applies only to the
entry of money into the Kingdom and not exiting. Jordan Customs is
responsible for archiving the declaration forms once implemented.
In December 2004, the United States and Jordan signed an Agreement
regarding Mutual Assistance between their Customs Administrations
that provides for mutual assistance with respect to customs offenses
and the sharing and disposition of forfeited assets. Collaboration
on mutual money laundering related customs cases has been sparse and
has been limited mostly to minimal intelligence sharing. The AML Law
authorizes Customs "to seize or restrain" undeclared money crossing
the border and report it to the AMLU which will decide whether the
money should be returned or the case referred to the judiciary. In
all known cases of detention of undeclared funds discovered during
customs processing, the money has been returned to the importer.
Seizure and forfeiture of assets related to criminal activity
including money laundering and terrorist financing are authorized
under a combination of statutes principal of which are: the Penal
Code, the Economic Crimes Law, the Anti Money Laundering Law, the
Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances Law and the Prevention of
Terrorism Act of 2006. Jordan's Anti-drugs Law allows the courts to
seize proceeds and instrumentalities of crime derived from acts
proscribed by the law. The Economic Crimes Law gives both
prosecutors and the courts the authority to seize from any person
proceeds generated by criminal activity under that law for a period
of three months while an investigation is underway. Jordan's penal
code further provides prosecutors the authority to confiscate "all
things" derived from a felony or intended misdemeanor. GOJ officials
claim that Jordan's cornucopia of seizure laws is sufficient to
accomplish the purposes of FATF Recommendation 3 regarding authority
to "confiscate property laundered, proceeds from money laundering or
predicate offences, instrumentalities used in or intended for use in
the commission of these offences, or property of corresponding value
. . ." These statutes concentrate primarily on the proceeds of crime
and not the means or instrumentalities used to commit a predicate
offense to money laundering or the financing of terrorism. The
multi-statute approach to freezing, confiscating or seizing of
assets makes it unclear as to whether investigators may specifically
trace and seize assets related to criminal activity. The GOJ has
been advised by both Council of Europe and U.S. Government advisors
that since this position is untested, it would be better to amend
current or draft new legislation which clearly complies with FATF
Recommendation 3. The GOJ publishes no statistics related to
freezing, seizing, forfeiting, or confiscating the proceeds or
instrumentalities of crime, and it is believed that there is no
tracking mechanism for such since there is not a statutory provision
for an asset forfeiture fund or civil forfeiture in Jordan.
An October 8, 2001 revision to the Penal Code criminalized terrorist
activities and the financing of terrorist acts. The Prevention of
Terrorism Act of 2006 also prohibits the financing of terrorist
acts. However, Jordan has no legislation that prohibits financing of
terrorist organizations or groups. Guidelines issued by the CBJ
state that banks should research all sanctions lists relating to
terrorist financing including those issued by individual countries
and other relevant authorities. The Central Bank may not circulate
names on sanctions lists to banks unless the names are included on
the UNSCR 1267 Sanctions Committee's consolidated list. No such
assets have been identified to date. Banks and other financial
institutions are required to maintain records for a period of five
years in order to facilitate investigations.
Jordan is a party to the 1988 UN Drug Convention, the UN Convention
for the Suppression of the Financing of Terrorism, and the UN
Convention against Corruption. Jordan ratified the UN Convention
against Transnational Organized Crime on May 22, 2009. Jordan is a
charter member of the Middle East and North Africa Financial Action
Task Force (MENAFATF) and in 2007 Jordan held the presidency of
MENAFATF. The GOJ received a MENAFATF Mutual Evaluation in July
¶2008. The report of that evaluation was accepted by the MENAFATF
plenary in spring 2009.
A multitude of deficiencies were detailed in the report. Of the
sixteen core and key Financial Action Task Force 40+9
Recommendations, Jordan was found deficient on fourteen. Most
noteworthy of these were absence of some predicate offenses for
money laundering from the AML law and a corresponding requirement of
obligated entities to report suspicious activity, lack of AML/CFT
regulations and provisions relating to due diligence required of
obligated entities, insufficient record keeping regulations,
inadequate criminalization of terrorist financing, no requirement
for the AMLU to receive STRs relating to terrorist financing, lack
of legal procedures for freezing funds and assets of persons named
pursuant to UN Security Council Resolution 1267, and lack of or
insufficient legal basis and/or measures for competent authorities
to exchange information with counterparts at the international level
in the field of AML/CFT.
Jordan's AML Law provides judicial authorities the legal basis to
cooperate with foreign judicial authorities in providing assistance
in foreign investigations, extradition, and freezing and seizing of
funds related to money laundering in accordance with current
legislation and bilateral or multilateral agreements to which Jordan
is a part based on reciprocity. Judicial authorities may order
implementation of requests by foreign judicial authorities to
confiscate proceeds of crime relating to money laundering and to
distribute such proceeds in accordance with bilateral or
multilateral agreements. There was no indication in 2009 that these
provisions of the AML Law have been used by the GOJ.
In light of identified statutory and procedural deficiencies coming
out of the MENAFATF mutual evaluation of 2008, the Government of
Jordan should conduct a comprehensive evaluation of Jordan's
capabilities in preventing money laundering and enforcing its new
law in accordance with international standards and best practices.
There was little advancement in the AML/CTF regime in 2009. Many of
the steps in the FIU implementation plan require action or approval
of the NCAML which has not steadily moved forward in addressing the
necessary requirements needed for compliance with the FATF 40+9
recommendations. In spite of numerous criminal cases involving large
financial value, no prosecutions of money laundering have occurred
since the passage of the AML Law. GOJ prosecutorial, law enforcement
and customs entities should examine forms of bulk cash smuggling
relating to terrorist financing and trade-based money laundering and
incorporate prevention and investigative strategies that meet the
requirements of complex financial investigations. Jordan should also
establish and implement a viable asset forfeiture regime. Charitable
and nonprofit organizations should have better supervision and
oversight. Per FATF Special Recommendation IX, Jordan's cross-border
currency reporting should include outbound declarations. Jordan
should draft, pass and implement legislation which meets
international standards concerning the financing of terrorism as it
is committed to do by virtue of its membership in the United Nations
and in MENAFATF. The AML Law should be amended to include as
predicate offenses to money laundering all crimes indicated by the
FATF Forty Recommendations as well as any offense or act that causes
a loss of revenue to the Kingdom in excess of 10,000 Jordanian
Dinars (approximately $14,100). Many offenses that generate large
illicit sums that are currently outside of the reach of the AML
Law's definition of money laundering could be targeted. This would
improve the financial sector in Jordan thus helping the Kingdom to
comport with international standards.
