The International Chamber of Commerce Qatar (ICC Qatar), in partnership with Refinitiv, Protiviti, and FinScan by Innovative Systems, will be holding a hybrid event to spotlight the latest risk and financial crime trends.
The hybrid event is slated on Tuesday, March 22, 10:30am at Qatar Chamber’s headquarters. It is also open for virtual participation via Zoom.
The event will feature presentations from Nipun Srivastava, managing director – MD & leader – FinCrime Compliance from Protiviti MENA; Ibrahim Bennani Doubli, regional director of Innovative Systems & FinScan; and Marina Agathangelou, customer success manager – EMNAQ Customer & Third-Party Risk Solutions from Refinitiv.
The event will look at the recent Financial Action Task Force (FATF) Mutual Evaluations assessments of the Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC), turn the spotlight on sanctions and the latest financial crime trends following the recent events in Eastern Europe, and address how data quality issues with advanced matching technology can make your risk and compliance initiatives more robust and effective.
Srivastava said, “Protiviti is proud to partner with the International Chamber of Commerce Qatar, Refinitiv, and FinScan by Innovative Systems, in the national discussion on financial crime compliance.
“Qatar is committed to working with the international community and across sectors to tackle illicit finance and money laundering. Addressing the various aspects related to FATF Mutual Evaluation is critical to achieving this outcome. Protiviti looks forward to providing the required details to the event participants to help prepare their organisations respond positively to the regulatory challenges, as Qatar continues to strengthen its financial crime framework.”
Doubli said, “FinScan is delighted to join the International Chamber of Commerce Qatar and World-Check in an in-depth discussion of current financial crime and sanction trends. Economic sanctions have clearly taken a central stage as the Russia-Ukraine geopolitical crisis unfolds globally.
“Our aim is to help raise awareness of the challenges surrounding this critical topic and to discuss best practices that organisations can adopt in their efforts to fight financial crime.”
