“Lebanese banks Thursday assured the U.S. ambassador to Lebanon David Hale they were strengthening measures to combat all forms of money laundering, terrorist funding and tax evasion. ‘We are preparing, in collaboration with our international audit firm, a manual on AML and FATCA policies and procedures,’ Association of Banks in Lebanon President Francois Bassil told the ambassador. ‘It will be available very soon to all operating banks in Lebanon,’ he said, adding that this would allow for ‘a standardized and harmonized implementation of the new U.S. regulations.’”
