The Gaming Board of Tanzania (GBT) is taking part in a national workshop in Morogoro from 9 to 13 November 2026 to prepare the country for its third mutual evaluation of anti-money-laundering and counter-terrorist-financing controls. The initiative involves government institutions and aims to improve coordination between authorities preventing financial crime, including risks linked to gambling.
The GBT's director general leads its delegation at the workshop, which is organised by the national multidisciplinary committee for anti-money-laundering and counter-terrorist financing with Tanzania's Financial Intelligence Unit. Deputy finance minister Mshamu Ali Munde opened the event on behalf of finance minister Khamis Mussa Omar.
The GBT is responsible for checking operators' compliance with applicable rules and their adoption of risk-management measures. The regulator said the workshop was an opportunity to improve cooperation, share expertise and coordinate prevention work. It reiterated its commitment to strengthening oversight of gambling operators and working with the authorities on compliance, transparency and financial system integrity.
The evaluation will examine Tanzania's national system for preventing and combating money laundering and terrorist financing. For gambling, the focus is on the ability of regulators and operators to identify and manage risks in regulated activities.
