MIAMI — Cayman Islands Institute of Professional Accountants (CIIPA) Chief Executive Officer Sheree Ebanks delivered a presentation on Anti-Money Laundering (AML) developments last week during the 42nd Caribbean Conference of Accountants, hosted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of the Caribbean (ICAC).  

Ebanks’ presentation, “AML Update and Trends,” underscored the Cayman Islands’ regulatory advancements and CIIPA’s role as the jurisdiction’s AML supervisor for accounting firms. Her remarks reflected CIIPA’s ongoing efforts to uphold international standards through effective oversight, outreach, and policy development.

“As Cayman’s AML supervisor for the accounting profession, CIIPA remains committed to promoting high standards of compliance and integrity,” said Ebanks.

Ebanks was part of a Cayman Islands delegation attending the conference, which convened accounting professionals and regulators from across the region for dialogue on emerging issues, regulatory updates, and strategic collaboration. There were a number of public sector representatives from Cayman also in attendance.

The delegation also participated in the ICAC Presidents’ Gala, celebrating the Caribbean’s shared progress and partnerships in the accountancy field.

CIIPA currently supervises nearly 140 accounting firms and service providers in the Cayman Islands, providing off-site monitoring, guidance, consultation, and educational initiatives to strengthen the jurisdiction’s AML framework.
