AML Best Practices for Banks in Egypt

As Egypt continues its digital transformation, financial institutions face an increasingly complex landscape of money laundering, terrorist financing, and other illicit activities. The country’s robust regulatory framework requires banks to prioritize Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance to prevent these crimes and protect the integrity of their operations.

Compliance with AML Regulations

Compliance with AML regulations is mandatory, and failure to do so can result in severe penalties, including fines of up to EGP 10 million (approximately USD 638,000). Despite this, many banks in Egypt struggle to implement effective AML programs due to limited resources and the complexity of regulatory requirements.

Challenges of AML Compliance


Banks in Egypt face several challenges in achieving AML compliance, including:

  • Limited Resources: Financial institutions must allocate significant time and budget to comply with AML regulations.
  • Complexity of Regulations: The increasing complexity of AML regulations makes it difficult for banks to keep pace with changing requirements.
  • Limited Expertise: Many banks lack the specialized knowledge and skills required to effectively implement AML programs.
