Chris Ram, Gerry Gouveia proposed for anti-laundering authority

Chartered accountant and attorney, Christopher Ram and businessman Gerry Gouveia are among 10 persons expected to be appointed to the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) Authority.

The other persons are Nicholas Deygoo, Wayne Eucaulton Fordyce, Hance Manohar,  UG lecturer Thomas Bissessar Singh, Frederick Collins, Mohamed Alli, Melissa Jessica DeSantos and attorney Sadie Amin.

The AML/CFT Authority is meant to be a key part of the architecture of the anti-laundering act passed by the APNU+AFC government but it has been delayed for a long period as the parliamentary Committee on Appointments had to gather names after consultations with various groups.
