The contribution is intended to strengthen regional capacity and support the development of stronger frameworks among APG member jurisdictions. The funding will be used for assessor training, technical assistance and mutual evaluations in the Global 5th Round. APG linked the contribution to Canada’s endorsement of the Group of Seven call for stronger collective action against financial crime, including greater cooperation, resilience and coordinated efforts to combat illicit financial activity.
