On September 02–03, 2025, a training session was held on the topic: “Preventing criminal infiltration of non-financial institutions” organized within the framework of the Council of Europe project “Action Against Economic Crime in Albania,” in cooperation with the Financial Intelligence Agency.

The main objective of this training was to strengthen the capacities of supervisory authorities of non-financial liberal professions (such as notaries, lawyers, accountants, real estate agents, and gambling operators) to identify, prevent, and address risks related to money laundering and terrorist financing.

International experts from the Council of Europe shared knowledge on the sector’s specific risks, the current legal and regulatory framework, case studies, and international best practices in supervising the prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing, with special attention given to risk-based supervision.

The event was attended by representatives from the Ministry of Justice, the Public Oversight Board, the National Chamber of Advocacy, the Gambling Supervision Authority, and the Financial Intelligence Agency.
