The head of the Croatian Office for Money Laundering Prevention, Mr. Ivica Maros, pointed out, at the end of the Conference, that the regional cooperation is necessary and indispensable due to the very geographic proximity and intensive economic activity followed by cash and capital flows. However, it is also a fact that economic flows inevitably involve criminal financial flows.
The third Regional Conference was a good opportunity to exchange experience and expert knowledge in the field of the prevention of money-laundering and terrorist financing, a place for the evaluation of achieved progress in particular countries as well as an agreement on further high level standard maintenance in mutual cooperation.
The Croatian Office for Money Laundering Prevention fully cooperates and exchanges information with related institutions in Slovenia, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Macedonia and Serbia.
