Madagascar's Ministry of Economy and Finance opened a capacity-building workshop on identifying, tracing, analyzing, investigating and recovering virtual assets. Organized by the Financial Intelligence Service with support from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, the program brings together national institutions involved in anti-money laundering, counterterrorist financing and financial investigations. The workshop aims to strengthen the national framework for addressing risks arising from the growing use of cryptoassets in line with international standards. Over several days, an international expert will work with financial intelligence, anti-corruption, asset recovery, law enforcement and intelligence bodies to develop technical expertise and improve interagency cooperation.
