The purpose of the meeting was to showcase the methodologies and requirements of both authorities as well as to foster cooperation between two regulators.
The joint workshop looked at an overview of both MGA and ANJ’s AML Units’ functions, composition and objectives with specific focus on the supervisory aspect. This included presentations on corresponding legislation, overview of AML/CFT obligations of licensees, the examination process and post-examination procedures and the common pitfalls which are encountered during such processes.
