The seminar, which will end on Friday, pooled 40 experts in the prevention of money laundering and financing terrorism.
The event was organised by the Croatian Finance Ministry, the Council of Europe and the Croatian Banking and Insurance Institute. Talks will be given by representatives of the offices for preventing money laundering from Croatia, Slovenia and Bulgaria, and representatives of the Council of Europe, the Croatian Finance Ministry said in a statement.
Croatia started developing its own strategy in the struggle against money laundering which is in line with international standards, Finance Minister Ivan Suker said.
He said international and regional cooperation was of vital importance for the work of the office for the prevention of money laundering.
This topic is particularly important in countries in transition, Siker said and added that credit ratings and investments in countries in the region would depend on that.
A representative of the Council of Europe, Przemyslaw Musialkowski, said the seminar should contribute to better cooperation among countries in the region and more efficient solving of the money laundering issue.
