The Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) has issued updated regulatory controls for exchange companies regarding anti-money laundering (AML), counter-terrorism financing (CTF), and counter-proliferation financing (CPF). The circular cancels the previous regulatory controls issued in 2008 and introduces new, updated measures, including enhanced due diligence, risk assessment, and reporting requirements. Exchange companies are granted a six-month grace period to comply with the new controls and are required to ensure ongoing training and compliance with the updated measures.
