It is of paramount concern to the government that Dubai’s reputation is not tainted by the use of the jurisdiction for money laundering or other illegal purposes. Therefore, International IBC Banking, as a licensed Registered Agent is expected, in accordance with a set of strict guidelines, to carry out proper due diligence and ‘know your customer’ checks so that we are satisfied as to the identity of the clients and the legitimate origin of the clients’ funds. Although total confidentiality is ensured by the legislation, the authorities will cooperate with law enforcement agencies and regulators in case of illegality.
