FATF Typologies Work
The FATF holds its global typologies exercise each year, which include active participation by the APG and other regional anti-money laundering bodies. Arising from its yearly typologies exercise, the FATF publishes a yearly typologies report to consider priority topics in detail.
Although the FATF has conducted typologies exercises since its beginning, reports of this work have only been made public since the 1995 exercise (released in June 1996). All reports include selected case studies.
