September 09, (THEWILL) – The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on Thursday, said it has commenced the issuance of certificates for the Special Control Unit Against Money Laundering (SCUML).
The development, the anti-graft agency said, is in line with its new status as a unit fully domiciled within the EFCC, and to also serve as statutory responsibilities under the new-fangled Money Laundering Act, 2022.
Recall that the Commission had earlier suspended the issuance of the certificates as an administrative measure, to bring SCUML into alignment with its new regulatory framework, environment, and obligations.
“The EFCC is delighted to inform the general public that the Special Control Unit Against Money Laundering, SCUML, has commenced issuance of certificates to every successful applicant.
“The EFCC wishes to assure the public of a more professional and efficient SCUML.
“Interested applicants can now come forward with their application for the new certificates”, the Commission said in a statement.
