في إطار جهوده لمحاربة «غسيل الأموال».. «المركزي اليمني» يوقف 13 مصرفاً

As part of the economic reforms launched by the Yemeni government, the Central Bank of Yemen issued a decision today (Wednesday) in the temporary capital, Aden, to suspend the licenses granted to 13 violating exchange companies and establishments.

The decision issued by the Governor of the Central Bank, Ahmed Ghaleb, emphasized that it is based on the powers exercised by the Central Bank and the laws related to banks, exchange operations, and combating money laundering and terrorism financing, attributing the issuance of the decision to the violations documented in the field report submitted by the Banking Supervision Sector.

The decision of the Central Bank of Yemen coincides with the start of a parliamentary committee, headed by Deputy Abdullah Al-Maqtari, visiting the branch of the Central Bank of Yemen in Marib Governorate, the Finance Office, and the branch of the Tax Authority in the governorate to assess the nature of performance, monetary policy, and financial integration within the institutions.

The committee reviewed the procedures for opening government accounts for all public and mixed offices and institutions, and the bank's oversight to ensure that there are no accounts for any government entity in banks or exchange companies, as well as the process of organizing the bank's receipt of revenues from various revenue-generating entities and oil companies, linking the bank's network to the main network in Aden, and the disbursement operations according to the financial reinforcements and statements related to the implementation of the general budget.

The parliamentary committee continues its oversight tasks on the performance of financial and revenue institutions within the local authority, examining their activities to identify irregularities in financial and administrative conduct, central and local public resources, as well as the difficulties and challenges facing their performance.
