The Bank of the Republic of Burundi has delivered training for staff responsible for supervision and compliance on anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing (AML/CFT), positioning the central bank to build a risk-based AML/CFT supervisory approach as the new AML/CFT law is implemented. The capacity-building programme ran from 27 to 31 October 2025 and was supported by the World Bank’s PRETE project, which has been underway since April 2025. The training is intended to enable the BRB to develop and operationalise tools for AML/CFT supervision based on money laundering and terrorist financing risks.
