This report provides a summary of the AML/CFT measures in place in Indonesia as at the date of the on-site visit in November 2007 or immediately thereafter. It describes and analyses those measures, and provides recommendations on how certain aspects of the system could be strengthened. It also sets out Indonesia’s levels of compliance with the FATF 40+9 Recommendations. 2. Indonesia has made very significant progress in recent years with its implementation of AML measures, but relatively little implementation of CFT measures has occurred. 3. In 2002 Indonesia enacted Law No. 15 of 2002 concerning the Crime of Money Laundering which was amended by Law Number 25 Year 2003 (the AML Law) which imposed AML/CFT requirements on financial institutions. Indonesia has now developed a strong FIU. Since 2004 Indonesia has begun to investigate and prosecute ML cases. Indonesia is set to significantly amend its AML Law and is in the process of passing specific proceeds of crime legislation. 4. A range of significant money laundering (ML) and very significant terrorism and terrorist financing (TF) risks exist in Indonesia. The scale of the terrorism threat is evidenced by Indonesia’s success in apprehending terrorists, with 423 arrests and 367 convictions of terrorists. In addition to domestic laundering of proceeds of crime, Indonesia notes a particular challenge from the movement of funds to regional financial centres. Indonesia is emerging from a period marked by weak rule of law and extreme levels of corruption. Corruption remains a very significant issue for all aspects of Indonesian society and a challenge for AML/CFT implementation. Combating corruption and strengthening rule of law are priorities for Indonesia. Legal Systems and Related Institutional Measures 5. Indonesia has criminalised ML under Articles 3 and 6 of the AML law. Indonesia’s ML offence uses a combined list and threshold approach to cover predicate offences. The scope of property subject to the ML offence is narrow and does not cover interest in any such movable or immovable property, and legal documents evidencing title to such property. The offence covers relevant types of ML activity, with the exception of conversion, simple possession and disguising the true nature, disposition, movement, rights with respect to, or ownership of property, or helping any person who is involved in the commission of the predicate offence to evade the legal consequences of his or her actions. Criminal sanctions for money laundering are generally proportionate and dissuasive. The AML Law creates corporate criminal liability for the ML offence; however there are concerns that application of corporate liability has not been tested in practice for any offence. 6. Since 2004, there have been 176 ML investigations, 18 prosecutions and 11 convictions. Most of the prosecuted ML cases have been limited to the proceeds of corruption or fraud. There are few investigations and prosecutions of ML cases in parallel with predicate offences. The number of prosecutions is increasing, although the size of the country and the risk of ML should be noted. 7. Terrorist financing is criminalised in articles 11-13 of Law No.15 of 2003 Concerning Government Regulation in Lieu of Law Number 1 Year 2002 concerning Combating Criminal Acts of Terrorism (the Anti-Terrorism Law), which came into force in October 2002.
