Cash and Voucher Assistance and Risk in Financial Management and Compliance

The CALP Network commissioned a scoping study on CVA and risk in financial management and compliance, which considered three specific challenges facing humanitarian organisations related to AML/ CTF regulations:
1. Transferring funds to the country of operations – challenges in identifying competent and willing banking providers and other FSPs to transfer funds to a country of operations
2. Identifying in-country service providers – challenges related to ‘Know Your Customer’ (KYC) regulations and financial sector identity checks by in-country FSPs, including mobile network operators (MNOs)
3. Beneficiary identification and data security – challenges relating to AML/CTF regulations and international sanctions regulations regarding CVA recipients
