The FATF's list of "High-Risk Jurisdictions subject to a Call for Action" (previously called "Public Statement") is known as the 'black list.' The standard-setter asks its member-countries to apply EDD or "enhanced due diligence" to applicants for businiess from these places and (if the Government of the United States finds the jurisdiction in question particularly detestable) to "apply counter-measures," an odd US naval term that the FATF started to use in the 'noughties to describe punitive conditions for, or exclusion from, financial business. This list contains only two jurisdictions - the two remaining 'Axis of Evil' countries, Iran and North Korea.
