Eurasian Group

What Eurasian Group does

The Eurasian Group on Combating Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing (EAG / ЕАГ) is an intergovernmental regional organization of FATF type, established by declaration in Moscow on October 6, 2004 and operating under a formal Agreement signed in 2011. Its nine member states — Belarus, India, Kazakhstan, China, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan — collectively constitute the primary beneficiaries of its work, with EAG holding associated membership in FATF and observer status at the UN General Assembly. Headquartered in Moscow with 11-50 staff, EAG is governed through regular Plenary Meetings (the 44th was held in May 2026 and the 45th is planned for November 2026 in Dushanbe) and operates without commercial revenue, funded instead by member state contributions and donor support.

EAG's core outputs comprise four service areas: (1) mutual evaluation reports assessing each member state's AML/CFT system against FATF standards, with the 3rd round cycle running 2025-2032; (2) typology research into money laundering, terrorist financing, and proliferation financing patterns specific to the Eurasian region, with over 30 completed projects since 2004; (3) technical assistance coordination delivered through the ЕИС КТС (Unified Technical Assistance Coordination Information System) digital platform launched in June 2023 and funded by the Eurasian Development Bank; and (4) engagement with supervisory authorities and the private sector via the International Compliance Council (МСК). The ЕИС КТС platform provides member states, donors, and providers with personal accounts, request management workflows, progress tracking, and analytical tools covering the full technical assistance lifecycle.

As an intergovernmental body, EAG distributes all outputs — evaluation reports, typology studies, guidance documents, and training materials — directly to member state governments, financial intelligence units, supervisory authorities, and law enforcement agencies, with a subset of publications publicly available on its website (eurasiangroup.org). Services and platforms are provided free of charge. Strategic partners include FATF, MUMCFM, ATC CIS, ADB, the World Bank, IMF, UNODC, OSCE, the Council of Europe, CTU UN, the Government of the United States, and the Government of Japan, which collectively support EAG's technical assistance and capacity-building mandate.
