AML Audit
An independent AML audit is a fact-finding process. It is not a financial audit but a test to see whether the organization has an appropriate AML Compliance program. The AML Audit will be conducted by on-site visit and off-site as well.
This Internal Audit charter aims to ensure better management of an enterprise by improving its governance, risk management, management controls, and compliance with the Ministry of Economy, Central Bank of UAE, UAE Federal Government, and Global Competent authorities.
