أسئلة KYC وKYB وAML في غينيا الاستوائية
Who receives suspicious transaction reports?+
Equatorial Guinea's National Agency for Financial Investigation (ANIF), the country's sole STR recipient.
When is an STR filed?+
Promptly when statutory suspicion grounds arise; attempted transactions are covered. Obtain the current ANIF form and secure transmission route.
Is there an automatic cash-report threshold?+
The 2024 mutual evaluation records bank reporting for cash transactions of CFAF 5 million or more. Confirm the operative instrument, scope, aggregation and frequency with ANIF before configuring production rules.
How is beneficial ownership handled?+
Identify and verify the natural persons who ultimately own or control the customer. Do not assume that a complete operational public BO register is available.
How long are AML records retained?+
CDD records are retained for at least five years after the relationship ends and transaction records for at least five years after execution, subject to lawful extensions.
Is Equatorial Guinea on a FATF public list?+
It was not named on FATF's high-risk or increased-monitoring lists current at 19 June 2026. The 2024 GABAC evaluation nevertheless records major weaknesses.
Can payment or electronic-money activity launch without approval?+
No. Classify the activity under current CEMAC, COBAC and BEAC rules and obtain every required approval before launch.
Are virtual-asset services clearly licensed?+
The 2024 evaluation found no formal domestic VASP and described an evolving regional position. Obtain current COSUMAF and national authority confirmation before offering or supporting virtual-asset services.
