Compliance at the Crossroads
The Middle East and North Africa have been geopolitical crossroads for centuries. Even though the region’s global importance is longstanding, the challenges faced by AML/AFC professionals are ever-changing. The growing adoption of virtual assets, stricter standards for identifying beneficial owners, and an increased focus on DNFBPs are just a few issues demanding compliance professionals’ attention. But the past shows us that new challenges become new opportunities — if the right knowledge and skills are present. Even the shadow of greylisting falling over a few countries can have the silver lining of strengthening AML/CFT efforts regionally, as lessons are learned and applied.
For these reasons, The Assembly MENA comes at a critical time for AML/AFC practitioners. Join like-minded peers, top regulators and financial industry leaders Nov. 7-8 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates for updates and guidance crafted especially for the unique circumstances of this region.
