SAMIFIN hosted an IMF team as part of their mission on the diagnosis of Governance in Madagascar. This visit followed their mission in October 2024.
The main discussion focused on cooperation between the different agencies involved in the Fight against Money Laundering and the Financing of Terrorism. Institutions such as BIANCO, ARAI, SAMIFIN, DGI and DGD were at the heart of the discussions, with a particular focus on coordination and cooperation between them, in particular the exchange of intelligence and information, monitoring of files and feedback, elements considered essential for more coherent management and better coordination of actions.
In terms of AML/CFT in general, particular emphasis was placed on the supervision of subject institutions, as well as on the application of sanctions.
