The session was chaired by Shaikha Mai bint Mohammed Al Khalifa, Chief Executive of the National Financial Intelligence Centre and Chair of the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Committee.
During the meeting, participants reviewed a range of agenda items and discussed the latest developments aimed at strengthening anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing frameworks across GCC countries. The committee also followed up on the work of technical teams and joint initiatives currently underway.
