The National Bank of Moldova published an update on a practical anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing (AML/CFT) workshop that brought together regulators and financial-sector participants to strengthen risk-based customer due diligence while supporting access to financial services for people in vulnerable situations. The workshop convened representatives of the National Bank of Moldova, other regulatory authorities, banking professionals, and staff from payment and microfinance institutions. It focused on building the capacity of financial institutions to implement AML/CFT measures in line with European Union directives and Financial Action Task Force (FATF) principles, aiming to protect the integrity of the financial system without unnecessarily restricting legitimate customers’ access. The event was organised under the project “Strengthening the AML regime and asset recovery in the Republic of Moldova”, part of the European Union and Council of Europe Partnership for Good Governance programme.
