Pursuant to the provisions of Law No. (35) of 2002 pertaining to Money Laundering Control, and whereas we strongly believe in the seriousness of the crime and the subsequent great threats for the national community; the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, through the office of controlling money laundering operations, has established this website as part of its continuous campaign for facing this phenomenon that threatens the economics of the State.
Whereas the money laundering concept is listed under the (crime) concept, which starts to sound the alarm everywhere, the office of controlling money laundering operations perseveres in intensifying its efforts regarding limiting the money laundering operations. In this regard, the office depends on a flexible mechanism based on a group of procedures and resolutions, including the establishment of this website.
Since we are convinced that this crime takes different forms with the development of the modern epoch that entails big change in the sectors of industry and communications and with the entrance to the globalization era without the presence of economic barriers between the countries; the State, represented by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, has hurried to take precautionary measures and mechanisms that are in compliance with such changes.
