  • Cyprus and the U.S. said Monday that they're doubling down on a joint effort to crack down on illicit finance with additional training of Cypriot law enforcement authorities

The article from The Hill discusses the enhanced cooperation between Cyprus and the United States to combat financial crimes, focusing on increasing training efforts.

This collaboration includes specialized training sessions for Cypriot officials, facilitated by U.S. experts, to improve detection and prevention of financial crimes. The initiative is part of a broader effort to ensure Cyprus meets international standards set by bodies like the Financial Action Task Force (FATF). The training programs cover areas such as risk assessment, compliance, and the use of advanced technology in tracking financial transactions. This partnership not only aims to clean up Cyprus's financial sector but also to foster a more transparent and secure global financial environment.
