The main objectives of Denmark’s support package are as follows: 1) IGAD’s Parliamentary Union (IPU): Regional AML/CFT alignment with international standards, harmonise regional legislation, connections to national legislators and strengthen national compliance and monitoring capacities; 2) Financial Intelligence Center of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia (FIC): Strengthen the FIC’s technical and operational capacity in line with international standards, strengthen capacity of Ethiopian financial institutions and inter-agency cooperation on AML/CTF is enhanced so that the AML/CFT system in Ethiopia operates more cohesively, FIC’s management and administrative systems enable the FIC to function effectively; and 3) Ministry of Justice of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia (MoJ): Enhance understanding and compliance of government officials in Ethiopia through training and awareness raising of AML/CFT.
A single Facilitating Agency will be contracted by Denmark to ensure that the necessary technical services required to support the partner institutions in achieving the objectives above are provided efficiently and effectively. The support through the Facilitating Agency is to be provided in accordance with concept notes/project plans of the partners and the Facilitating Agency will act as sparring partner to the partners.
