Twenty officers from various government agencies of Nepal has started their training on Anti Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism at National Academy of Customs, Indirect Taxes and Narcotics (NACIN), Faridabad. The six-day customized training course has been organized on the request of Government of Nepal.

The training is fully supported by the Government of India under the Indian Technical and Economic Cooperation (ITEC) Programme. It is yet another example of the Government of India’s commitment to supporting the capacity development of Nepali officers. A total of 60 officers from various regulatory agencies in Nepal will be trained under this latest initiative. Two more batches of 20 officers each will be trained at NACIN in October and December 2019. This initiative is likely to enhance the capacities of agencies of Nepal on the matters pertaining to Anti Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism.
