Money Laundering (ML), Terrorism Financing (TF), Proliferation Financing (PF) and cybercrime are major risks that threaten economic growth and social stability through the illicit flow of funds and illegal activities. Financial Institutions (FIs) are highly exposed to ML, TF, PF and cybercrime risks in their daily operations with customers and other associated parties.
Financial and Cyber Crime Prevention (FCCP) was established to lead ADGM’s efforts in promoting sound practices in financial crime compliance which include Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Targeted Financial Sanctions (TFS), cybercrime prevention and compliance with international tax reporting obligations (i.e. FATCA, CRS).
As an international financial centre, different sectors and businesses, products and services are vulnerable to these risks, too. Other Designated Non-Financial Businesses and Professions (DNFBPs) such as lawyers, accountants and auditors, company service providers, are also exposed to these risks in their business transactions.
Financial Services Regulatory Authority is the competent authority for AML and TFS compliance which is committed to develop a robust regulatory framework and provide a safe environment for FIs and DNFBPs to operate within.
FCCP adopts the risk-based approach and considers financial innovation in its strategic plans and operational tasks to ensure it achieves the highest possible level of efficiency and effectiveness.
As part of its regulatory function, the FCCP team adopts an agile and risk-based approach, coupled with deployment of regulatory technologies and sharing of information, to strengthen its compliance capabilities in a variety of ways.
