The Director General of SAMIFIN was received by the President of Parlementary
To intensify the efforts to combat money laundering and the financing of terrorism, Mamitiana Rajaonarison, Director General of the Financial Intelligence Service (Samifin), met yesterday Justin Tokely, President of the National Assembly.
This meeting, which took place in Tsimbazaza, marks a step in strengthening collaboration between Samifin and the Lower House of Parliament. This meeting is part of a strategy of advocacy with the parliament. Parliament is a necessary step for any bill, and acting at the level of parliament is an effective way to raise awareness within the institution of the fight against money laundering. Indeed, the adoption of relevant laws and the implementation of rigorous programs are essential to effectively counter these financial crimes. The meeting highlighted several current and future programs intended to strengthen the legal and operational framework against these scourges. This rapprochement between SAMIFIN and the National Assembly is a positive sign of the authorities' desire to firmly combat money laundering and the financing of terrorism.
