Kuwait has taken significant strides in the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing. The primary legislation governing this area is Kuwait Law No. 106/2013 Concerning the Fight Against Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism and its executive regulations. This law, along with the subsequent regulations and guidance, was enacted in response to international evaluations and the need to align Kuwait's financial system with global standards. The law imposes detailed compliance requirements on financial institutions and certain non-financial businesses, emphasising the importance of internal compliance, risk assessment, and reporting suspicious transactions. The Kuwait Financial Intelligence Unit (KwFIU) plays a pivotal role in analysing suspicious transaction reports (STRs) and ensuring adherence to the law.
