ZEDCO AML Policy

ZEDCO DMCC is fully committed to local and international rules and regulations for the prevention of Money Laundering and terrorism activities.  Accordingly, we have taken the necessary procedural and control measures to provide our support in the fight against money laundering and the financing of terrorism.  We are also committed to examining and maintaining our Anti-Money Laundering procedures and control on an on-going basis.
AML Policy Overview

ZEDCO DMCC is committed in compliance to, and strict practice of, all regulatory requirements including those related to Anti Money Laundering by UAE and other competent world bodies. We comply with the regulations of world bodies which collectively set and enforce standards for the anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing policies and programs such as the FATF, UN, the EU, the Organisation of American States- The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and the Local Regulatory Authorities such as Central Bank of the UAE.
In the UAE, the Central Bank of the UAE, or more specifically the Anti-Money laundering and Suspicious Cases Unit(AMLSCU) of the Central Bank, is the regulatory body requiring the institution of AML rules.  Since 2001, the UAE Government (UAEG) has taken steps to better monitor cash flows through the UAE financial system and to co-operate with international efforts to combat terrorist financing.  The UAE has enacted two laws that serve as the foundation for the country's Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and counterterrorism law.  Although the Anti-Money Laundering law criminalizes money laundering, it is administrative Regulation No. 24/2000 that provides guidelines for how financial institutions are to monitor for money laundering activity.
 Ownership Verification

Corporates and other legal entities with whom we do transactions are checked and confirmed by obtaining and verifying copies of trade licenses, company formation documents, export and import licenses, passport copies and any other documents deemed necessary for this purpose.


Due Diligence

Enhanced due diligence is conducted when transactions appear to be potentially suspicious. Staff may ask for additional identification documents or documentary proof in such cases.


Internal Monitoring System

In case of suspicious transactions, such cases are reported to the compliance department.  They will conduct an in depth investigation and take appropriate action before reporting such transactions to Anti-Money Laundering Suspicious Case Unit(AMLSCU) at the UAE Central Bank.

Responsible Gold Policy Statement

We are committed to the strict compliance of the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas and the supplement on gold.  This provides a common reference for all participants in the supply chain to ensure responsible sourcing and chain of custody of gold and other precious metals and to eliminate the risk of direct or indirect support to any kind of conflict in accordance with international standards.
We commit ourselves to uphold the best practices in the industry and adhere to highest moral and ethical standards.  We also comply with our AML policy which is aligned with national and international regulations.
