Papua New Guinea is set to face grey listing for the second time by the Financial Action Task Force.

Bank of PNG Governor Elizabeth Genia confirmed grey listing is imminent.

PNG is currently in a 12-month Observation Period which ends in October 2025. During this time, PNG has the opportunity to show significant progress in responding to recommended actions from the mutual evaluation. Only sustained and rapid action from our responsible agencies would put PNG in a position to avoid the grey list completely.

We go overseas and see how Governments of those countries take care of this basic human need yet we take no lesson back home.
