Following the release of the document: “Guidelines for Supervised Financial Institutions on the Prevention of Money Laundering, Countering the Financing of Terrorism & Proliferation Financing”, published on the Bank’s website in August (the “AML/CFT/PF Guidelines”), it was discovered that certain paragraphs had been inadvertently omitted from Part VII – RECORD KEEPING, in the section entitled “Verification of Identity and Other Records”.


The Central Bank has today issued a Corrigendum which inserts the omitted paragraphs into the AML/CFT/PF Guidelines. These additional paragraphs numbered 196A to 196J, should be read together with the AML/CFT/PF Guidelines.

A red-lined version of the AML/CFT/PF Guidelines showing all of the substantive changes made to the Guidelines to date, will be posted to the Bank’s website during the month of October 2018.
