摘要

This study assesses Hong Kong’s anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing (AML/CFT) regime by examining regulatory compliance, prosecution results, supervision of the non-financial sector, and alignment with Financial Action Task Force (FATF) standards. Analysis of 194 jurisdictions with FATF evaluation data (2019–2023) indicates Hong Kong’s technical compliance is high (70/100), but enforcement gaps remain, including limited cross-border prosecutions and inconsistent supervision of the non-financial sector. This study benchmarks AML/CFT measures, underscores the compliance challenges faced by jurisdictions and financial centres, and situates Hong Kong’s issues within the context of global governance using institutional and regulatory theories.
