The UAE’s Ministry of Economy has suspended the licenses of 32 gold refineries due to non-compliance with the anti-money laundering (AML) regulations. This action affects refineries representing 5% of the UAE’s gold sector.

Recently, the Central Bank of the UAE (CBUAE) revoked the license of an insurance broker operating in the UAE and struck its name off the Register. This action was taken due to the weak anti-money laundering (AML) compliance framework of the company, and its failure to meet regulatory obligations.

Finch Innovate is thrilled to have participated in the recent AMLC Conference organized by DNY Communications LLC.  The event provided an excellent platform to explore new AML compliance trends and the challenges faced by various industries in adhering to AML regulations.
