The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) announced on the 5th of March that it had added the United Arab Emirates to its Increased Monitoring List for failing to implement adequate AML & CTF controls.
Since then the UAE’s authorities with the close cooperation of other national organizations, have endeavored to address and rectify the deficiencies reported by the FATF by drawing up a national action plan based on the FATF’s recommendations and working closely with all Subject Persons in order to swiftly and successfully exit the undesirable grey list.
In light of the above we are excited to announce our next webinar during which the main points of discussion shall be:
• Examine the UAE’s Greylisting
• Overview of Challenges for Subject Persons
• Commercial Implications
• The impact on UAE’s Attractiveness
• An Outsider’s PerspectiveThe speakers for this webinar shall be James Tebbs (Partner, Forensics at Grant Thornton UAE) and Guy Albrecht (Head of Compliance at CDDS).
