  • Dubai UAE Anti Money Laundering Law & Lawyers, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah

    Anti Money Laundering and Compliance

    Although the UAE has greatly enhanced its anti-money laundering laws in recent years, far too often, regional businesses fail to keep up with the changing UAE laws, risking investigation and prosecution for non-compliance. The consequences can be severe; investigations frequently take many months, during which a company’s bank accounts may be frozen, and key personnel cannot travel. If found guilty of money laundering offenses, defendants face significant jail time.
