29. The global money laundering regulatory edifice is contained largely in four international conventions. Shortly after the first convention was forged, the G-7 group of nations formed an entity, the Financial Action Task Force, to protect the financial system from money laundering activity and to guide the evolution and implementation of anti-money laundering regulations. Although a non-state actor, that task force has since become the dominant source of regulatory norms: see Convention against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances, 11 November 1990; Convention against Transnational Organized Crime, 29 December 2003; Convention against Corruption, 14 December 2005; Convention for the Suppression of Terrorist Financing, 10 April 2002; International Standards on Combating Money Laundering and the Financing of Terrorism and Proliferation – the Faft Recommendations, Financial Action Task Force, 16 February 2012.
