Burkina Faso
COUNTRY DESCRIPTION: Burkina Faso, previously known as Upper Volta, is a developing country in western Africa that borders the Sahara Desert. The capital is Ouagadougou and the official language is French. It is one of the poorest countries in Sub-Saharan Africa: basic infrastructure is unreliable, technical competence is hard to find, the climate is severe, and the majority of the population is involved in subsistence agriculture. Tourists most often come to Burkina Faso from December to February, after the rainy season and before the heat becomes oppressive, but tourist infrastructure is limited.

M) Money Laundering and Financial Crimes
In February 2001, the Government of Jersey brought into effect the Financial Services (Jersey) Law. This legislation amended the Investment Business (Jersey) Law by extending Jersey’s financial regulations to Jersey’s approximately 300 trust and company services providers. Businesses that provide company administration, trustee, or fiduciary services are subject to the law. Secondly, in the course of providing such services, the person must provide any one of a number of services, such as being a company formation agent, a director, a secretary, the provider of registered office, the provider of accommodation address, or acting as trustee. Under the new law, the FSC can and does visit each business to ensure compliance with Codes of Practice. These Codes of Practice, which are established for investment and trust company businesses, set out the basic principles under which the business should be conducted. They include the requirement that the Island’s anti-money laundering defenses sh ... [Read More]
