The Financial Intelligence Centres in South Africa and Namibia have recently reviewed FICA legislation. In Namibia this has resulted in the inclusion of accountants as ‘Accountable Institutions’. The South African FIC is considering similar amendments. These amendments seek to improve measures to combat money laundering and terrorist financing. In this month’s accounting update webinar, Gerhard Stols will provide an update on the new legislation and the implications for accountants.  He will be joined by Brune Pretorius, an accountant in Namibia who will be giving us her view on the Namibian legislation.
