About CAML

The 14th Compliance and Anti-Money Laundering (CAML) seminar returns in its 14th edition on the 20th of March 2023, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. CAML is organized by The Saudi Central Bank (SAMA), Anti-Money Laundering Permanent Committee (AMLPC) and Refinitiv (An LSEG Business) and is held under the patronage of His Excellency Mr. Ayman Alsayari, Governor of the Saudi Central Bank (SAMA).

CAML was first held in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 2008, the event was in response to increasing regulatory pressure and compliance complexity in the wake of the financial crisis.

The annual event welcomes a number of regional and international speakers from Financial Institutions, Regulators, Technology firms and Advisory Groups. It is recognized as a valuable platform for an exchange of ideas and information between the Kingdom’s business leaders, financial institutions and local GRC professionals.

In the thirteen years since the first event was held, the regulatory compliance environment has become increasingly complex and challenging to navigate. With the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 strategy aimed at boosting economic diversification, local executives from various sectors are tasked with aligning their compliance policies with international standards. The CAML event thus addresses a growing need for accurate and up-to-date compliance information in the local market.

This year’s event will cover topics including:

  • Latest Global Regulatory Developments
  • Latest Challenges in Proliferation Financing
  • Cyber-Enabled Fraud Crime
  • Financial Inclusion: The Impact of a Non-Risk Based Approach
