The workshop covered two main themes: mechanisms for reporting suspicious transactions—including improving reporting quality and registering on the 'Taqassi' platform—and the application of targeted financial sanctions related to terrorism financing. The initiative forms part of the Ministry of Commerce's ongoing efforts to raise private-sector awareness of regulatory updates and compliance with anti-money laundering and terrorism financing requirements.
