The World Compliance Association (WCA-RD) signed the first inter-institutional agreement for cooperation and coordinated work with the Association of Multiple Banks of the Dominican Republic (ABA).
The objective of this agreement is to generate synergies that promote training, academic and practical actions related to improving compliance, risk management, anti-corruption, anti-bribery management, competitiveness, good governance and corporate reputation, with the purpose of promoting good local and international practices with emphasis on constant updating.
The executive president of the Dominican Chapter, Tania de León, expressed that they have received the support of the ABA since before the WCA Dominican Chapter was born. “We seek to promote a culture of country legality at a multi-sector level and the banks play an important role due to the accumulated experience they already have,” she said.
He added: “We have a great commitment to raise the levels of professional competence in terms of risk management, fraud, and corruption. We understand that the ABA is a vital space to achieve this goal”.
For her part, the president of the ABA, Rosanna Ruiz, expressed that with the signing of this agreement, a crusade can be made in the public and private, banking and non-banking spheres, of what that culture of compliance, anti-corruption and anti-bribery is. .
