Combating money laundering and terrorist financing in the Tunisian insurance sector

On 19 August 2025, Tunisia’s General Insurance Committee (CGA) released a new set of Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing (AML/CFT) guidelines aimed at strengthening efforts to combat such practices within the insurance industry.

Titled “Guidelines on Identification, Identity Verification, and Knowledge of Business Relationships in the Insurance Sector,” the 33-page document is designed to support insurance companies in establishing robust systems to prevent and detect AML/CFT activities.

The guidelines provide practical recommendations on customer due diligence obligations, among other measures.
