Kenya’s compliance environment is moving from policy adoption toward evidence of effectiveness. The key question for institutions is no longer simply whether they have AML policies, screening systems and risk assessments, but whether they can demonstrate that those controls identify real risk, generate useful intelligence and lead to appropriate action.
Following the June 2026 FATF review, Kenya remains on the list of jurisdictions under increased monitoring. Key priorities include stronger risk-based supervision, improved understanding of preventive measures, increased suspicious transaction reporting and reliable beneficial ownership information. FATF has also emphasized the need for better use of financial intelligence, more money laundering investigations and prosecutions and effective targeted financial sanctions with proportionate oversight of non-profit organizations.
