Acrion and Comsure Group Jersey deliver AML/CFT/CPF training ahead of Mauritius’ 2027 mutual evaluation

Specialised training held on 3 June 2026 at Hennessy Park Hotel, Ebene

Acrion Ltd and Comsure Group Jersey jointly organised a specialised training session on 3 June 2026 at Hennessy Park Hotel, Ebene, focusing on the evolving Anti-Money Laundering, Countering the Financing of Terrorism, and Countering Proliferation Financing (AML/CFT/CPF) landscape in Mauritius. The training was held in the wake of the enactment of the AML/CFT/CPF (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2026, and in preparation for the country’s 2027 Mutual Evaluation.

The session brought together a wide range of financial services professionals, including compliance officers, Money Laundering Reporting Officers (MLROs), legal practitioners, and risk management professionals. Discussions centered on the practical implications of the recent legislative amendments and the increasingly stringent regulatory expectations placed upon reporting persons.  The event was marked by strong audience engagement, with participants actively contributing to discussions on the practical application of the legislation and addressing areas where interpretation may be less straightforward. These exchanges highlighted the industry’s increasing recognition that compliance extends beyond the technical interpretation of laws and regulations. It also requires a thorough understanding of regulatory expectations, risk exposure, and effective implementation practices.

Ameer Caunhye, CEO of Acrion Ltd, provided participants with an overview of the key changes introduced by the AML/CFT/CPF (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2026 and examined their impact across the financial services sector.

Mathew Beale, CEO of Comsure Group Jersey and a highly respected AML specialist who has been contributing to the development of Mauritius’ compliance sector for more than two decades, explored during his presentation the broad-reaching implications of the Financial Crimes Commission Act (FCCA) and the continuing evolution of the Mauritian financial crime framework.

Particular emphasis was placed on the growing focus on effectiveness, sanctions compliance, proliferation financing, and the practical challenges organisations may encounter when interpreting and implementing elements of the new legislative framework.

The training formed part of Acrion and Comsure Group Jersey’s shared commitment to supporting the financial services industry through practical, forward-looking, and internationally aligned compliance education, helping organisations strengthen their preparedness for future regulatory developments and international assessments.
