It is our expectation that the board of directors and senior management of institutions to play their roles in ensuring that the compliance programme is fully implemented and that any money laundering and terrorism financing activities are promptly detected and reported. Hence, I urge all reporting institutions to improve both the quantity and quality of STR submitted. In the same vein, the FIU will continue to improve its feedback mechanism to reporting institutions. The fourth area is to give greater emphasis on compliance. This is important so as to improve the compliance level among the reporting institutions in order to preserve the integrity and stability of the financial system. More focus will be given to enhance and raise the compliance level among DNFBPs in view of the emerging risks. To this end, greater collaboration between the FIU and the various self-regulatory organisations would be pursued actively during the year. BIS Review 46/2009  3  The fifth and last area is to ensure that the enforcement of the AML/CFT regime should be achieved without undue increase in the regulatory cost. It is important that the controls in place are commensurate with the associated money laundering and terrorism financing risks and the risk mitigation measures are adequate. This underscores the progressive introduction of more risk-based approach in the national AML/CFT regime. I understand that this is among key topics to be discussed in this conference, and I am sure it will generate interesting discussions between the experts and the participants.
