(4)Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/1393 3 recognises that third countries which are not publicly identified as subject to calls for action or increased monitoring by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) might still pose a threat to the integrity of the Union’s financial system, especially where membership of such countries in FATF is suspended because of gross violations of the core principles upon which FATF is built. Pursuant to Article 1a of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/1184 4 , the Commission is to conclude the review of such third countries by 31 December 2025, to assess whether to amend the Annex to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1675 accordingly.
