This training delivers a practical understanding of Federal Decree-Law No. 10 of 2025 and its implications for regulated entities across the UAE. Participants will learn how to translate the new legal requirements into practical implementation measures by reviewing and enhancing governance frameworks, policies, procedures, controls, customer onboarding and due diligence processes, beneficial ownership verification, transaction monitoring systems, sanctions compliance programmes, escalation pathways, reporting obligations, risk management frameworks, internal accountability structures, and regulatory engagement processes.

The workshop translates legal and regulatory requirements into effective operation-al practices and prepares institutions for evolving supervisory expectations. Through practical case studies, role-plays, group exercises, and implementation-focused discussions, participants will gain the knowledge, tools, and practical insights required to operationalize the new requirements, identify implementation gaps, strengthen existing frameworks, and align their organizations with regulatory expectations for 2026 and beyond.
