Following the article published by Reuters about Monaco being added to the European Union’s list of “high-risk jurisdictions,” we want to clarify a few key points — especially for our clients and partners wondering how this affects the Monaco real estate market in 2025.
👉 This classification is not a sanction
This classification is the automatic result of Monaco being placed on the FATF (Financial Action Task Force) grey list in February. It simply means the Principality is under closer observation while finalizing technical adjustments. Most of these measures are already underway and progressing efficiently.
👉 Monaco’s Authorities Responded Clearly
The Monaco Association for Financial Activities (AMAF) confirmed that Monaco is not on a blacklist. The FATF itself recognized the efforts made and the reforms already implemented.
🏡 What Does This Mean for the Monaco Real Estate Market in 2025?
TQuite simply: nothing changes. The Monaco real estate market in 2025 continues to be governed by strong compliance standards.
- KYC (Know Your Customer) procedures are systematic
- Fund traceability is fully enforced
- All transactions follow strict legal and regulatory frameworks
Real estate in Monaco remains secure, transparent, and internationally attractive — supported by consistent global demand and a stable legal environment.
đź’¬ In summary
There is no cause for concern. The Monaco real estate market in 2025 is stable, regulated, and continues to attract serious investors.
