- Grey List: Countries that are considered safe haven for supporting terror funding and money laundering are put in the FATF grey list.
- Black List: Countries known as Non-Cooperative Countries or Territories (NCCTs) are put in the blacklist.
  - These countries support terror funding and money laundering activities.
