The deadline for notifying the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority of the appointment by a regulated fund of an Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Officer, Money Laundering Reporting Officer and Deputy MLRO will fall in two weeks' time, on 31 December.

Each regulated fund is therefore required to complete the requisite form for each appointee and submit it on the regulator’s REEFS portal by that date. Unregulated funds are reminded that they also have an obligation to appoint AML officers and should have these appointments in place by 31 December also. However, unregulated funds are not at this point required to tell CIMA about such appointments.
