IDENTIFICATION OF NATIONAL POLITICALLY EXPOSED PERSONS: KAZAKHSTAN REALITIES AND INTERNATIONAL PRACTICE
Abstract
The purpose of the research – to summarize the international experience on the example of the CIS countries that are members of the Eurasian Group on Combating Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism on identification of national politically exposed persons (PEPs) among clients of financial institutions in the performance of financial transactions by the latter, and to develop proposals for the possible implementation of one of the models in Kazakhstan practice in order to minimize the risks of money laundering by national PEPs.
Methodology – in the course of this study the method of qualitative analysis - expert interview was used. Interviews with representatives of commercial banks of Astana took place in their personal presence, the interview with respondents from Almaty was held online.
Originality / value – the author gives her own definition of the national public official. Based on the research of international scientists, and the results of the interview, the tools for possible use in the process of activity of second-tier banks in order to implement certain legislative norms in the field of combating legalization (laundering) of proceeds of crime and financing of terrorism in Kazakhstan were proposed.
Conclusions – the results of the research indicate that in Kazakhstan the financial institutions comply with the norms of International standards for the customer due diligence and the identification of national PEPs among them de facto, however, de jure at the legislative level, there are no such requirements. Thus, the inclusion in the basic law of the concept of "national public official" and the use of one of the proposed tools will allow financial institutions to implement the policy of “transparency and reliability” of the client more effectively.
