They will enable the Congolese authorities to better understand the scope of CFS obligations and their place in the strategy to combat the financing of terrorism and the financing of nuclear proliferation. The analysis of the law and the training sessions will be used to fuel subsequent exchanges on the operationalisation of the adopted texts. \nThree main areas of work are proposed:\n1. Operationalisation of the institutional framework dedicated to the CFS: support for the definition of operational processes for the implementation of Recommendations 6 and 7 (identification of targets\, communication of lists\, withdrawal of lists\, unfreezing of funds\, etc.)\n2. Establishment of processes for monitoring and inventorying frozen assets\, to enable the DRC to respond to the FATF’s request for statistics on frozen assets (develop the process for communicating frozen assets to the competent authorities and their centralisation)\n3. Ensure effective implementation of targeted financial sanctions by raising awareness of the scope of the obligations among the authorities responsible for monitoring the implementation of the CFS and the private sector”. \nOn Tuesday 25 April\, the EU Global Facility team will provide a mentoring on national coordination\, aimed at preparing the Technical Assistance Coordination Committee (TACC) meeting foreseen at the EU Delegation on Wednesday 26 April. \nThe TACC was launched last December in Kinshasa\, in order to best coordinate the work of all technical assistance providers to the Congolese partners in their efforts to strengthen their AML/CFT frameworks.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

A number of joint activities has already been held on various international judicial cooperation matters.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Global Facility on AML/CFT on Thursday wrapped up a three-day regional training workshop on “Implementing a register of beneficial owners” in Tunis. \n“It is part of the mission of RNE as an actor in the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing and guarantor of the transparency of economic transactions necessary for economic growth\,” said the Director General of the register\, Adel Chouari\, at the opening of the training on Tuesday. \nHe stressed the importance of the implementation of a register of beneficial owners\, which is the first guarantor of transparency and integrity of the financial sector\, especially since Tunisia is preparing to come under the scrutiny of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) in 2024\, for a periodic evaluation. \nFor his part\, the Head of Section and First Secretary of the Delegation of the European Union in Tunisia\, Massimiliano Messi\, noted that the EU will always support the NER and Tunisia so that investment remains viable and interesting and a source of job and wealth creation. \n“It is very important for the EU to train in the field of Beneficial Ownership\, noting that the recommendations of the intergovernmental body that oversees global trends in money laundering and terrorist financing “FATF” are very important but those on BO still remain the most complicated” he said. \nMessi estimated that the presence of representatives of the commercial registers of Algeria and Libya will allow to create a dynamic to be able to detect the BO which are hidden in a register in one country or in another. \nThe training was led by international experts from the EU Global Facility coming from Belgium and Luxembourg.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle”

SUMMARY:Support of finalisation of NPO Sectoral Risk Assessment in Jamaica
