Stop CCP Money Laundering Act of 2025

This bill mandates two key actions concerning Hong Kong's financial activities. First, within 180 days, the Secretary of the Treasury must determine whether Hong Kong should be designated as a jurisdiction of primary money laundering concern , providing a detailed justification for this assessment. This determination is crucial for evaluating the region's adherence to international financial integrity standards. Second, the bill requires the Secretary of State, in coordination with the Secretaries of the Treasury and Commerce, to submit a comprehensive report within 360 days. This report will assess the capacity of financial institutions in Hong Kong to identify and prevent transactions that facilitate the transfer of products, technology, and money to countries like Russia and Iran , in violation of U.S. export controls and sanctions. It will also evaluate Hong Kong's role in facilitating such illicit activities, both knowingly and unknowingly, and examine how recent security laws impact compliance with anti-money laundering and know-your-customer procedures . The report will also describe cooperation and challenges between Hong Kong and U.S. authorities in enforcing these regimes.
